Good morning all,
I was diagnosed impared glucose tolerance last December and the word prediabetes was also mentioned, its taken me until last week to finally do something about it, I work with a lady who has type 1 diabetes yet she eats crunchy nut cornflakes or coco pops for breakfast, and belavita biscuits sometimes too.
Yet walking round the supermarket last night and looking at the carbohydrates/sugars on the side of the packaging almost all cereal and breakfast biscuits are high in sugar contents, so what's safe for a prediabetic if a type 1 sufferer can eat food with high sugar contents ? I'm trying to cut my sugar intake but I don't know if your supposed to have some sugar in your system rather than none at all ?
