Can I ask, where did the origins of this new found advice here begin?
Do any of you know who the person was who first contradicted the
professional's advice and how did it end up in asd?

I'd love to know how Jennifer formulated her test,test,test advice.
IMO, part of its genius is that it doesn't directly contradict the
medical advice - it just makes it blatantly clear that they have no
idea what's happening (at least mine didn't, until I met an endo 9mo
after dx).

Agreed!

Jenny's research is hugely helpful because it gives you a realistic
explanation of why control is important, to follow up Jennifer's How.
A great combo : )

As for low carbing for obesity - Banting was 1890s, I think! That's
the low-carbing Banting, not the insulin one...

I saw a reference to low carbing for reactive hypoglycemia from 1924
and I can recall back in the seventies or so that cutting out starches
was the usual method of weight loss. Mother agrees that went back at
least to the twenties for weight loss if not for diabetes, so the
information was known for a long time and then hidden by the low fat
fanatics in the meantime.

Don't forget Richard Bernstein . . .
