[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 986906, member: 93179"] I think you have to watch some of the Alpro drinks because they can definitely contain contain added sugar, so check if they do an unweetened soya version, or find another unsweetened brand. I use their Almond milk and have to make sure that it's labelled as "unsweetened" as their Original one definitely contains added sugar. I'd personally not be happy about drinking any liquid with that amount of sugar on my low carb diet, and I'd be more concerned over my glucose levels than my cholersterol. But are [B]you[/B] testing to see how your levels are responding to it, rather than relying on our opinions on your sugar consumption. I also feel that some practices are more interested in things like cholesterol levels in diabetics rather than trying to help them improve and control their glucose levels. Mine certainly appears to be this way inclined, and their percentage of diabetics with good glucose control has been appalling to put it mildly... And finally you should definitely ask to a full detailed cholesterol test to get the relative levels of HDL and LDL - this last is the one that needs to be lower. Robbity [/QUOTE]
