๐ข Time for Change! NICE's dietary advice for people with type 2 diabetes urgently needs updating.

Read our open letter to NICE - written in collaboration with colleagues from X-PERT Health and Public Health Collaboration British Dietetic Association Duane Mellor PhD Sarah Alicea bda.uk.com/resource/the-bโฆ

The British Dietetic Association and BDA Diabetes SG ๐ recognise the importance of an urgent update of NICE guidance. For many years I have been unable to reconcile current evidence with the NICE guidance when teaching postgrad students - which is highly unsatisfactory for people living with diabetes.
