Yes, like being told to eat well over 100 gms of carbs in a day - for a newly diagnosed diabetic! This happened to one of my friends just within the year, so it is still going on for sure.

“Yes, like being told to eat well over 100 gms of carbs in a day - for a newly diagnosed diabetic! This happened to one of my friends just within the year, so it is still going on for sure.”

I had read that there are doctors who say something like: “Sure, very low carb is promising, but if I go against the ADA and government guidelines, I risk being sued and losing everything - so I’m playing it safe”.

...and keep in mind, all that it takes is a doctor recommending very low carb, and then a patient not abiding by it, and therefore getting sicker - but all the patient has to do to hit the jackpot at that point is CLAIM that they followed the very low carb diet, and the doctor is in trouble.
