[QUOTE="Boo1979, post: 1676381, member: 446715"] The only way to know how foods affect you is to get yourself a meter and test strips, then use it to test your blood sugar immediately before eating a food /meal ana again 2 hours later - you are looking to see rises of less than 2.5- 3mmol as a starting point, working to achieve 2mmol as the maximum raise as you get better overall control Everyone will react differently as a function of age, stage and type of diabetes, individual physiology etc and whilst everyone of us on the site can tell you what works for us there is variation in that and therefore how useful the info is beyond giving general pointers. Most with T2 will agree reducing carbs is essential but beyond that there is are wide differences and disagreements as to what that means in practice [URL]http://spirit-healthcare.co.uk/product/tee2-blood-glucose-meter/[/URL] [URL]https://homehealth-uk.com/all-products/codefree-blood-glucose-monitoring-system-mmoll-or-mgdl/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
