My BMI is going to be much higher than yours... what do you expect when I have Metabolic Syndrome and you have Type 1
Please show me where I say to eliminate all carbs in any post? If
low-carb means
no-carb then what does
low-fat mean?
I ask that you post any studies here rather than a PM... because I don't think that there are any studies which show high-fat leads to atherosclerosis, or that ketones or protein are damaging to healthy kidneys. These statements have been made for at least 30 years so you must believe there are studies to prove it.
Here is a study concerning kidneys and protein:
The Impact of Protein Intake on Renal Function Decline in Women with Normal Renal Function or Mild Renal Insufficiency -- Knight et al. 138 (6): 460 -- Annals of Internal Medicine Quote:
|
Conclusions: High protein intake was not associated with renal function decline in women with normal renal function. However, high total protein intake, particularly high intake of nondairy animal protein, may accelerate renal function decline in women with mild renal insufficiency.

[my bold emphasis]
As for renal function, I have mine tested on a regular basis by my Endo - isn't that standard practice with Diabetes - if not, it should be.
