You can see a couple of tweets from Dr Unwin on this page where he shares anonymous data with patient consent.  You can see how dramatic and sustainable the improvements in weight and sugar levels can be. We might ask you if you agree for us to share your data in this way as it can be a very powerful way of spreading great results to help motivate other people.

How to switch to a lower carb diet

There are certain situations where a switch to a lower carb diet could be harmful and so medical advice should be sought. If you take no medication for Blood Pressure and no medication for Type 2 Diabetes (or only Metformin) then there should be no reason why you could not try a lower carb diet. If you are on medication other than Metformin for Type 2 Diabetes then you should discuss with a health professional as these diets could cause low blood sugar levels or other issues which will need to be discussed before you make a significant change to your diet.

A lower carb diet may also lower your blood pressure and so this is something that will need to be kept an eye on.
