The last video dealt with case damning the existing treatment or recommendations to follow a high carb diet managed with ever increasing doses of insulin. This video deals with the evidence for rather managing it with a low carb lifestyle. There are two great studies for advocating this method.
1:) Dietary carbohydrate restriction in type 2 diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome: time for a critical appraisal
Nutrition and Metabolism(Lond) 2008; 5: 9.
Numerous authors including Richard Bertstein, Mary Vernon, Jeff Volek, Eric Westman
http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=2359752&tool=pmcentrez
Conducted Multi-center trial in which 63 obese men and women were randomly assigned to either diet, 21 Low Carb, 21 Control, 21 High Carb for a one year study.
This discussion focuses on type 2 diabetes but many of the principles will apply to metabolic syndrome and possibly to type 1 as well[6,7].
1. Carbohydrate restriction improves glycemic control, the primary target of nutritional therapy and reduces insulin fluctuations.
2. Carbohydrate-restricted diets are at least as effective for weight loss as low-fat diets.
3. Substitution of fat for carbohydrate is generally beneficial for markers for and incidence of CVD.
4. Carbohydrate restriction improves the features of metabolic syndrome.
An important idea guiding current medical thinking is that clustering of seemingly disparate physiologic states, obesity, atherogenic dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia and hypertension, termed metabolic syndrome (MetS) suggests a common underlying cause. A recent review showed that carbohydrate restriction improves all of these markers[24].
5. Beneficial effects of carbohydrate restriction do not require weight loss. It’s not simply a weight loss argument or due to people losing weight do they achieve the benefits.
2.) Low-carbohydrate diet in type 2 diabetes: stable improvement of bodyweight and glycemic control during 44 months follow-up

Conclusion:
There is now little evidence for the claim that a fat-reduced diet for weight reduction has any particular value beyond caloric counting [10]. Current dietary recommendations seem to be a major part of their problem rather than being part of the solution. Carbohydrate restriction, however, reverses or neutralises all aspects of the metabolic syndrome [20,21].

This video comes out of another myth that gets propagated out by Atkins Diet bashers that somehow we are more likely to get diabetes by following low carb. Certainly there is no shortage of misinformation on the web:
http://www.atkinsexposed.org/atkins/122/Nutritionists_Warn_Diabetics_to_be_Wary_of_Atkins_Diet.htm
http://www.diabetesuffolk.com/LivingWithDiabetes/The%20Atkins%20diet.htm
Some say we are dangerous for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics. Some just type 1 diabetics, but it really couldn’t be further from the truth. As all people, ESPECIALLY diabetics, could benefit from controlling blood glucose levels by carbohydrate monitoring or restriction.
There are two major proponents for Low Carb for diabetics:
Richard Bernstein, Type 1 Diabetic since 1946
http://www.diabetes911.net/about.php
Author of THE DIABETES DIET and Diabetes Solution
Mary Ross Vernon
Chairman of the board, American Society of Bariatric Physicians
Co-Author of Atkins Diabetes Revolution with Robert Atkins
http://tinyurl.com/cbjk76
2007 and 2008 Runner Up for Diabetic Educator of the Year Award
Mary Ross Vernon has been controlling diabetes with an Very Low Carb Diet (similar to Atkins Diet) for many years. She says both her Type 1 and Type 2 patients have benefited from carbohydrate restriction. She also notes that seeking quality physicians to handle the dramatic decrease in insulin requirements is paramount as some patients could be medication free in 3 days! See the attached quote (http://rjr10036.typepad.com/askdrvernon/2007/05/ron_of_sarasota.html).
Recently a number of studies have been released to support this position as well. One of the most notable for describing the failure of the existing recommendation of high carb and regulating with increasing doses of insulin is the study released in 2005 Nutrition and Metabolism magazine, “The case for low carbohydrate diets in diabetes management.” (http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1188071&tool=pmcentrez) They detail that the high carbohydrate diet has lead to worse glycemic control, dislipidemia, hypertension, obesity, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). They noted in their review of studies that the low carb followers showed dramatic improvement in comparison to the high carb followers.

Signs and symptoms
==================
The classical triad of diabetes symptoms is polyuria, polydipsia and polyphagia, which are, respectively,
frequent urination; increased thirst and consequent increased fluid intake; and increased appetite. Symptoms may develop quite rapidly (weeks or months)
in type 1 diabetes, particularly in children. However, in type 2 diabetes the symptoms develop much more slowly and may be subtle or completely absent. Type 1 diabetes may also cause a rapid yet significant weight loss (despite normal or even increased eating) and irreducible fatigue. All of these symptoms except weight loss can also manifest in type 2 diabetes in patients whose diabetes is poorly controlled.
When the glucose concentration in the blood is raised beyond the renal threshold, reabsorption of glucose in
the proximal renal tubuli is incomplete, and part of the glucose remains in the urine (glycosuria). This
increases the osmotic pressure of the urine and inhibits the reabsorption of water by the kidney, resulting in
increased urine production (polyuria) and increased fluid loss. Lost blood volume will be replaced osmotically from water held in body cells, causing dehydration and increased thirst.
Prolonged high blood glucose causes glucose absorption, which leads to changes in the shape of the lenses of the eyes, resulting in vision changes. Blurred vision is a common complaint leading to a diabetes diagnosis; type 1 should always be suspected in cases of rapid vision change whereas type 2 is generally more gradual, but should still be suspected.
Patients (usually with type 1 diabetes) may also present with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), an extreme state of
metabolic dysregulation characterized by the smell of acetone on the patient’s breath; a rapid, deep breathing known as Kussmaul breathing; polyuria; nausea; vomiting and abdominal pain; and any of many altered states of consciousness or arousal
(such as hostility and mania or, equally, confusion and lethargy). In severe DKA, coma may follow, progressing to death. Diabetic ketoacidosis is a medical emergency and requires hospital admission.
A rarer but equally severe possibility is hyperosmolar nonketotic state, which is more common in type 2 diabetes and is mainly the result of dehydration due to loss of body water. Often, the patient has been drinking extreme amounts of sugar-containing drinks, leading to a vicious circle in regard
to the water loss.

“The Tailor That Didn’t Believe ” The Mayer Institutes Second Online Diabetic Foot Case Study dealing with the diabetic foot wound. Anyone with diabetes, at risk for diabetic or knowing anyone with diabetes should watch this.
Diabetes affects 10% of the population in Canada. Up to 70% of diabetics will develop peripheral neuropathy (a loss of sensation in their feet). One in 4 of these patients will develop a foot ulcer, for whom amputation is a major risk. Diabetic foot complications are a leading cause of hospitalization, and accounts for is over 75% of the non-traumatic lower limb amputations performed annually in Canada. We believe these diabetic complications are preventable.

This shocking story may save your life....
I Turned My Husband Into A Human Guinea Pig…
And Banished His Diabetes For Good!
After champagne and wedding cake, my diabetic husband crashed
to the floor. As the ambulance pulled away, I made up my mind to
wage war on diabetes.
Only after years of research am I now making my findings
available. And you won’t believe what I’ve uncovered…
“Somebody Call An Ambulance!”
Even though diabetes ran in my family, I’d never given it much thought. Both my grandmother and my cousin had diabetes… but the disease had never hit home for me.
But that all changed on my wedding night. I knew my husband had diabetes, but I didn’t realize how serious the disease could be.
Until I Watched His Eyes Roll Up Into The Back Of His Head
On the most important night of my life, my husband crashed to the floor. Turns out, he had a bit too much cake and champagne and that caused his glucose levels to spike.
I learned a LOT about diabetes that night… but diabetes was about to learn a lot about ME in the coming years.
Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned…
