shalini 1170x650 - Indian Type 1 Diabetes On LCHF Diet Success Story - Shalini

Shalini is a juvenile diabetic since the age of 11 months. Now she is 12+ years old.

Her mother, Dr Sarala – Registered MD, posts on the forum, and is also one of the moderators/mentors.

Shalini has been on LCHF diet for more than 2 years now. Her success story has been posted on the forum in multiple parts, starting from 1 month on LCHF, to now over 2 years on Indian Low Carb High Fat diet, in different shades, which we all follow in dLife.in.

Instead of quoting snippets from the posts, we are directly linking them here, in chronological order of posting on the forum:

You will need to JOIN the community for going through the above threads.

Three things need special mention:

  1. Shalini has maintained an A1C in the 5.4 to 5.6 range throughout.
  2. She did not experience any DKA. So-called experts only know how to scare anyone with DKA.
  3. Dr Sarala, a registered MD, supports LCHF as a way of life for diabetics. Her word, besides that of two other doctors on the moderating team, is more than enough for anyone who has any doubts, or is being scared by the IGNORANT. WE or someone in our family is living that LIFE, and following medical reports.

If a type 1 child happily switched to LCHF diet at the age of 10, and has sustained it for 2+ years, then anyone can. Those who say that the LCHF diet is not sustainable in the long-term, are nothing but ignorant, and reading it out from promotional literature that comes to them from industry-funded research.

Shalini is a role model for any other diabetic who is currently waiting in the sidelines, only because they have been confused by conflicting opinions. Learn from the masters who have perfected the art and science of Indian Low Carb High Fat diet as a lifestyle.
