  1. LOW CARBOHYDRATE, LOW INSULIN, MODERATE PROTEIN, HEALTHY FATS AS THE BASIS FOR BLOOD GLUCOSE NORMAIZATON IN DIABETES RON RAAB B.EC, PRESIDENT, INSULIN FOR LIFE AUSTRALIA

  2. Much effort goes into refining insulin doses and types. But little focus seems to be on analysing the effect of that which insulin acts on..... the food we eat....

  3. DON’T CONFUSE THE LOW CHO / LOW GI DIET WITH “RADICAL” OR “FAD” DIETS

  4. WHY IS THE LOW CHO DIET BETTER? SMALLER QUANTITY OF CHO LESS INSULIN REQUIRED MUCH MORE PREDICTABILITY AND MUCH LESS VARIATION IN BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS

  5. “HIGH” CHODIET-one possible pattern AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE ENTERING THE BLOOD TIME INSULIN ACTION (AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE LEAVING THE BLOOD) RESULTS: MOREACTUAL AND POTENTIAL VARIATION AND LESS PREDICTABILITY IN BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS WORSE OUTCOME

  6. “HIGH” CHODIET-another possible pattern AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE ENTERING THE BLOOD TIME RESULTS: MOREACTUAL AND POTENTIAL VARIATION AND LESS PREDICTABILITY IN BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS WORSE OUTCOME INSULIN ACTION (AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE LEAVING THE BLOOD)

  7. Usual recommended regimeHigh Carb – High InsulinOne of many unpredictable results Food absorption – amount of glucose entering blood Blood glucose level 5 Time (hours) Insulin absorption – amount of glucose leaving blood Result  Large and unpredictable variation in blood glucose levels

  8. “LOW” CHO, LOW G.I DIET AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE ENTERING THE BLOOD TIME RESULTS: LESSACTUAL AND POTENTIAL VARIATION AND MORE PREDICTABILITY IN BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS BETTER OUTCOME INSULIN ACTION (AMOUNT OF GLUCOSE LEAVING THE BLOOD)

  9. The timing of CHO as it enters the blood as glucose is “ significantly” variable/unpredictable

  10. Delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis)

  11. Variability in the timing of insulin absorption

  12. Severity of hypos

  13. Why did the high CHO diet advice evolve as part of the treatment of diabetes?

  14. Example of a “low carb” meal: healthy protein source (eg fish), low-carb vegetables, salads, small amounts of slowly absorbed carb, etc Is low- carb, NOT no-carb... Compared to “high carb” meals such as: large amounts of pasta, bread, rice, fruit, high-carb vegetables, other carbs, etc. R. Raab

  15. CONCLUSION

  16. THE LOW CHO DIET BETTER BECAUSE SMALLER QUANTITY OF CHO LESS INSULIN REQUIRED MUCH MORE PREDICTABILITY AND MUCH LESS VARIATION IN BLOOD GLUCOSE LEVELS

  17. Relationship between HbA1c and average finger blood glucose HbA1c of 9% = 260 mg/dl (14.4 mmol/l) HbA1c of 8% = 220 “ (12.2 “ ) HbA1c of 7% = 180 “ (10.0 “ ) HbA1c of 6% = 140 “ (7.7 “ ) HbA1c of 5% = 100 “ (5.5 “ )
