It is not just about carbohydrates.It is the healing by natural minerals vitamins from fruits and vegetables which cannot be replaced by supplements. There is a long science with research papers which cannot be explained here.

Nutrition research is a minefield of easy answers. People who speak in certainties (like you do) can be presumed to not have studied it in depth.
It can't be explained here because it's wrong. People with Type I are born with or later develop an inability to produce insulin. It may be physical (the removal of a pancreas) or an autoimmune condition can destroy the beta cells, or they were born without functioning beta cells. Type II is a disease of poor nutrition, and is absolutely reversible through diet, exercise and/or fasting. Type I is a physical inability to produce insulin. Fruits won't solve that.
