Where did you get this from, Grant? It may be easy to debunk this, but I
would like to know the facts behind these statements. There certainly was a
switch from low carb to high carb for diabetic control and there must have
been some reason. Was lowcarb responsible for the poor health of these
patients or was something else to blame? Did the patients, in fact, have bad
health?
