Episode 368: Dr. Ian Lake

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD
Podcast. Dr. Ian Lake has worked as a doctor in the NHS for
nearly four decades, most of this time as a general practitioner.
After being diagnosed with LADA Type 1 Diabetes at age 36 and
managing it conventionally for 20 years, he adopted the low carb
diet and has been following it for the past 10 years. He is a
founding member of the Public Health Collaboration in the U.K.
and has conducted several important research projects
investigating the connection between low carb diets and human
health. He has also worked with Dr. Tro and others to produce the
Type 1 Consensus Statement.


In this episode, Drs. Tro and Ian talk about…


Statistics about people with Type 1 Diabetes

Understanding Type 1, why a low carb diet is such an
effective therapy for it, and why the conventional approach to
treating Type 1 is not ideal

The accessibility of Insulin pumps in the U.K. and the U.S.

Dietary recommendations for Type 1 patients in the U.S. and
the U.K.

Why a high carb diet is not beneficial for Type 1 patients

Injecting insulin while following a ketogenic diet

Dr. Lake’s recent publication on the impacts of the Ketogenic
diet on anxiety and depression in patients with Type 1 (linked
