"If you are looking into LCHF for your child, please speak to your child's diabetes consultant and paediatrician first.
There are indeed many benefits to LCHF - however, a substantial dietary adaptation should not be undertaken by children without appropriate input and monitoring from a health team to ensure the child's growth is normal and their nutritional needs are being met at all stages of their childhood.
By all means, ask questions, share your views and engage in discussion - but please speak to your child's diabetes team too."

The forum known as the 'Flog' because it tries to sell products and services to it's members at every opportunity. When it is not selling members private information to big pharma companies for drug trials, issues a warning re. the Low carb higher fat diet to parents of diabetic children.

"One of the ways the website makes money is by charging to put organisations such as pharmaceutical companies doing medical trials in touch with forum members who have diabetes." Mr. Arjun Panesar forum of flog owner.
This is somewhat surprising, because so impressed are the forums management with the LCHF diet for adults, they have put together their own training program for low carb. Admittedly, it is primarily a marketing tool, to extract ever more private information from the members. Clearly, they have publicly given low carb their seal of approval, but why the warning? Keep in mind, low carb higher healthy fat promoters are recommending eating whole fresh food, and staying well clear of factory produced high sugar/starch junk.
Is this a back covering exercise? DCUK must know the majority of 'experts' are against LCHF for adults, let alone children, although this attitude is changing fast. The low fat high carb diet has proved to be an unmitigated disaster, for not only diabetics, but the general population. The forum management should also know, some of the best controlled type one diabetic children in the world, are low carbers, as can be seen by clicking on the links below.
It seems fair to me, the management should consider posting up the links below, on their forum. It offers balance to their post today, that's if they believe a whole fresh food approach is the way forward for diabetics. All diabetics, including children.
