Am a diabetic but not sure if it is type 1 or 2. All these 10 years I have been treated for type 2 in india with metformin and supporting tablets but now in the us they suspect it could be type 1. India doctor suggests me to follow high fat, medium protein and low carb diet. Need your opinion on this.
