[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something a lot of the anti keto people don't understand or refuse to consider: for those of us with a family history of severe Type 1 or 2 diabetes we cannot live a healthy life trying to process the overwhelming amount of carbs in the standard American diet. We have a metabolic condition and no matter how healthy wheat or oatmeal is for others, we cannot process large amounts of it and it ends up making us unhealthy.  I am glad the medical community is waking up and finally paying attention to low carb eating!

T2 runs on both sides of my family and my paternal grandparents were blind, had lost limbs and had heart disease from it.  My father has been suffering for years too. As I see him on a ton of medications and in pain, trying to survive a recent heart attack, I am so thankful I found Keto/Paleo/low carb, even though I do opt to have healthy carbs now, because I am just about 60 and I am on no medication for cholesterol, high blood pressure and other things that plaque my other relatives.

There is a group of people who genetically do end up with higher cholesterol on a higher fat keto diet, even if they are doing it correctly.  If anyone is interested out there, look up Dave Feldman.  He is an engineer who was a marathon runner and this happened to him.  He is doing a lot of research with other scientists to try and help people who want to stay keto or just figure out how to live healthier with minimal medications.

DP.  There are some people on diabetic boards who cannot believe that keto doesn't work for some diabetics.

Different people are different.  Keto may be the answer for some people but not for most, including most diabetics.[/quote]
