The Research Says……….
Low
In 2019 the American Diabetes Association (ADA) made a statement, recommending that people with diabetes be offered individualized medical nutrition therapy, rather than be given the “one-size-fits-all” advice to count carbohydrates and restrict calories. Included in options that should be offered to patients are low-carbohydrate diets. The statement concluded that the overall reduction of carbohydrate intake for individuals with diabetes has demonstrated the most evidence for improving Type 2 diabetes and may be applied in a variety of eating patterns that meet individual needs and preferences.
Carb
The ADA’s consensus report was written by 14 experts led by Dr. William S. Yancy, Jr., who is a member of Diet Doctor’s medical review board. While the ADA lends support to low carb diets for the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, there are still many people who need additional supports. Those supports, in the form of coaching, peer groups,accountability tracking can be invaluable to people until they can make the full paradigm switch and create a new future for themselves along with the full support of their medical providers.
