Recently there has been an increased interest in limiting intake of carbohydrates (CHO) for improving long term health. While healthcare professionals (HCPs) are sometimes reluctant to limit the CHO intake due to the lack of information related to safety issues, low CHO diets are increasing in popularity amongst both people with and without diabetes. One of these diets, the very low CHO high fat diet (VLCHF) raises concern on its impact on the lipid profile, liver, response to glucagon, and insulin dose adjustments when adopting it in the context of type 1 diabetes (T1D). The investigators recently conducted a series of interviews with people with diabetes following a VLCHF diet (Brazeau et al. Manuscript in preparation) to inquire on their reasons for adopting VLCHF as well as challenges they faced. The main reasons to initiate the diet were to limit blood glucose fluctuations and reduce medication. An issue that was frequently mentioned during the interviews was the lack of support from HCPs which often leads to not discussing it with said HCP. This is an important source of concern that can lead to additional safety issues. Our goal is to provide information regarding the safety of a VLCHF diet for T1D and the individualized insulin adjustments required. The investigators aim to evaluate the changes in daily blood glucose fluctuations after 6 weeks of a VLCHF diet, to monitor the changes in the insulin dosing and to measure impact on lipid profiles, response to glucagon, and liver function.
