[QUOTE="Omnipod, post: 525299, member: 89494"] you mentioned lean ham. wheres the fats in lean ham? Fat from meat product is not really good fat so ofcourse it will affect cholesterol. Fat is fat. I said.... "Its better to sort out the insulin level rather than the food issue" and if the OP wants to cut down on body fat.... do you still suggest ham with fat? If you suggest lean ham (which means theres not fat), would this affect his blood sugar? NO! Lean ham may not have such a good effect on a type 1. Maybe a type 2 because your body still produces insulin. With a type 1, the body does not produce insulin. The OP is therefore taking too much so consuming ham may not even help. The solution therefore lies in the dose adjusting. Any type of protein is going to be counterproductive if consumed at night. Digestion is supposed to slow by about 50% while you’re sleeping but if you eat a lot of protein, you digest even more slowly. Also, eating meat product before bed is not good as this can bring on nightmares. Instead of focusing on sleeping, your body is focusing on digesting the protein. Fat stimulates the production of acid in the stomach, which can spill up into your esophagus, causing heartburn. Fatty foods can also loosen the lower esophageal sphincter, the barrier between the stomach and the esophagus, making it even easier for acid to get in all the wrong places infact fat will affect the quality of sleep! id sooner recomend a small banana. Bananas help promote sleep because they contain the natural muscle-relaxants magnesium and potassium. They’re also carbs which will help make you sleepy as well and give a more stable blood glucose DAFNE is a course for type 1 diabetics. DESMOND is a course for type 2 diabetics. Treatment for insulin dependant and non insulin dependant diabetes differs vastly. In my opinion, Brunneria, your suggestions makes no sense. [/QUOTE]
