World's largest low-carb type 1 diabetes study set to start
The world's largest study of how a low carbohydrate diet can impact and help control type 1 diabetes is set to start this autumn.
The Dietary Science Foundation ∈Sweden, which funds scientific studies focused on diet and how it can affect health, has been raising funds to carry out the work.
A number of studies have already shown low carb diets to have a lot of potential towards improving type 1 diabetes health. Last week, research into low carb and type 1 diabetes made the headlines as it showed that a group of mainly children and young adults were able to achieve excellent control on a very low carb diet.
A larger study could more emphatically demonstrate the benefits of eating low carb on the management of type 1 diabetes. According to the organization, of the 50,000 people ∈Sweden who have type 1 diabetes, only 25% manage to control their blood sugars at the recommended level with standard care. This leaves a lot of room for improvement and the low carb lifestyle shows significant promise for helping people improve their control.
