LOW carb diets (not no carb) are great for diabetics. It really helps in lowering blood sugar. My doctor put it into perspective like this: carbs come from grain... we feed cattle grain to get nice and fat... it has the same effect on people. Also, protien intake helps to produce a hormone (the name escapes me now) that helps the body increase it's metabolism.
