Thanks AGC_68, couple more quick questions does it mix with water or almond milk etc? and is it any good for weight/fat loss (along with exercise obviously) I'll have to look on Huel website.

Hi AGC. how do you find Huel & protein with your BGL usually? I'm trying to get back on track & looked at LCHF/KETO again or someone suggested Huel but then was told Huel not good for diabetics.. interested in your view regards

hi, apologise if its a stupid question but I'm trying to get back into LCHF having fallen off the wagon a bit & gained fat again.( & restarted depression but that's another story) eating better now & exercising but reading diet doctor & other places all say avoid processed meats but i then see...

apologies as its probably on a thread somewhere, but can you get strips on prescription or just buy them yourself? thanks

I use BCAA & whey.. taken with water rather than milk the sugar content/ carb amount is much lower

I'm paramedic, often get called to jobs like this.. if you feel really bad & still nothings changed call 999 & explain situation.. 111 would call ambulance as that's their default, we get loads of jobs from 111

thanks, I'll try decaf in evenings & see how I go

I prefer pinot noir as not as heavy & high tannins, but as others have said, go for what you enjoy

may be a stupid question but I know a lot of people use bullet proof coffee to start the day, I can't have cream & don't use milk so am happy with black coffee but due to bouts of insomnia don't have it afternoond) evenings. is decaf still good for us or should it be caffeine based? thanks

good question, I'm an HCP so not allowed to answer but I'm sure a lot of people won't know without resorting to Google

hi David. firstly I'm not a qualified PT or nutritionist but yes it is possible to build muscle on LCHF.. is it muscle mass or lean muscle you look to build? I stopped training several years ago family/work/ laziness etc) & was diagnosed T2 earlier this year.. started LCHF, BG levels good ...

I know it's only pre hospital & not NICE or a load of Doctors but in a recent Paramedic update I was on this week, the low carb programme was mentioned by tutors who actively dismissed the old ways of thinking, said that T2 diabetes CAN be reversed/ put in remission by LCHF, explained reasoning...

I know a few people in YAS, I'll see what I can find out, no promises at all though

indiaemily, good luck & I hope it works out for you, Ive been in ambulance service nearly 20yrs and know several diabetics in my service and others, admittedly mostly type 2 but a few type 1's are in the job & can drive.. it's not impossible, but you may have to fight.. the link noblehead put...

I'm still new to this, is it "normal" after low carbbing for a while, that having a few more carbs makes you feel like **** & bloats you? I'd done really well on LCHF after diagnosis, stone & half loss, dropped trouser size pulse & BP down etc.. however having worked at a few festivals...

weights & cardio almost daily

been doing LCHF for 3mths now, lost stone & noticeable fat loss but now weight hasn't moved for 3weeks despite doing nothing different, does body find its natural state or can I boost it somehow to go through few extra pounds? I do intermittent fasting but could probably do more.. thanks

I think it must do, my levels had been great for months but recently under a lot of stress (personal & work) & my levels have been higher at times than I would have thought & don't seem to bear relation to what I've eaten at all

sounds stupid but weight training/ exercise helps me relax.. trying mindfulness but mind wanders too much !! lol.. recently started kayaking & that really helps relax me, esp on rivers / sea around Dorset.

hi., I'm well aware everyone's different but I use AMsport protein & BCAA with no/little effect on BG (I'm T2 metformin) BCAA even states on tub "suitable for diabetics" good tasting & reasonable prices too.. maxi muscle & PhD did affect my BG ..
