Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
There are so many false belief about lowering blood sugars by such diet but in reality one thing we can do is to avoid carbohydrates mainly mono and disaccharides which is very harmful.
We can use fat which can convert in to ketone bodies we called it ketogenic diet that is very good.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
