Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Posted October 4, 2006 Hi Harry, I would like to know where you get some of this information from? In all my 32 years as a diabetic, at NO time was I ever told to eat high carbs and no protein. It has always been a balance of carbs, proteins, fats, fruits and vegetables, and milk products. You can get nothing from fat but more fat on your body. As for the kidneys, once the kidney cells are damaged, they cannot come back. You can as you said slow it down or stop it for awhile. I had a friend who was a nurse and looked after herself impeccably and still lost her kidneys and eyesight, and know another person who has not looked after herself as well and did not lose anything. Genetics plays into the equation. As far as infections go, I was always told that these can raise blood sugars. Bottom line is always everything in balance! Ruth Quote
