Have you been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for more than 18 months?

Get involved in a research study with UCL, to help us learn about people's experiences using a digital app aimed to support the adoption of a healthier diet and improve symptoms of type 2 diabetes.

Er - you do know that the 'healthier diet' typically recommended for those of us diagnosed some little time was to eat beans and baked potatoes as 'a good lunch'?
I think that most type twos would struggle with that, as it would cause elevated blood glucose levels for many.
Whilst I appreciate that you want to help, type two diabetics seem to be doomed to receive poor guidance about their diet.

Oh yes.
When I saw one of the people who'd been on the 'educational' course with me some time later, he'd lost a foot, and the other was going the same way by the look of it.
