Because the medical folks are not interested in helping us to know.

When I took my kids to pediatric well visits, I felt they were enemies. They didnot foster a partnership with me. Asked lots of questions. Fast appintment. All the things I wish I
had known as a new mother......wish I had known feeding meat and veg based diet was ok. My kids ate the Pyramid. I ate Atkins.

Even today I do not tell my primary I do keto. Or try. A year ago, she said my a1c was up a bit. I said, I,ll have to work on that. She says nothing more.

Need a new doc, but they are all the same except for a rare few hard to find.
