Diagnosed with Type 1 at age 60. Did LCHF for 18 months to help control blood sugars. I ended up with very high cholesterol. Switched to a whole food plant based diet focussing on starches. High carb, no fat or oil. Have been doing this for 9 months. HbA1c 5.6%, total cholesterol 2.4 mmol (93 mg/dl). Exercise 3-4 hours a day. Inject with 2 units of Levemir morning and evening. No bolus required on this diet.
