no deberia estar la CIA involucrada en esto ? <| sep |> You ' re just spouting old , wornout nonsense to be honest , and as you admit you aren ' t a dietitian either . Just a nurse is a pretty apt description . I ' m a doctor not of humans , and that doesn ' t qualify me to give advice on nutrition either , obviously . What I can do is read the scientific literature and share my own experience . Ketogenic diets work just fine for diabetics of any type if you do the research and get proper supplementation . There is enormous amounts of research on them right now . I initially found lowcarb eating on the advice of my CDE dietitian . After eating to the ADA guidelines 50 % of calories from carbs per day , minimum wasn ' t working for me I couldn ' t control my BG to my satisfaction , she suggested I look into keto or other very lowcarb diets . They work for me . They work for others here on rdiabetes . So please don ' t act as if you know what works for other people . The truth is pretty simple you can eat however you want , as long as you ' re willing to do the work or pay the price . Eat high carb , if you ' re on insulin , and if you manage well , bravo ! The only thing that really counts for any diabetic is how well we control our Blood Glucose by various measures . You have goals for yourself , I have goals for myself . Eating lowcarb has improved my BG control , my lipid profiles , and my energy levels . Eating high carb is obviously working for you . Don ' t be so arrogant as to think that a nursing degree and your own experience makes you an expert on what others should eat , diabetic or not .
