I've just been diagnosed with Type 2 – what can I eat?
In one word... anything. Or how about another? Everything
So they are basically saying you can eat anything and everything? And this is Diabetes Uk the country's biggest diabetes charity.
I could understand them saying that for T1 who can inject (you still have to do some pretty serious carb counting injecting and testing to eat anything and everything with T1) but surely for T2 the message should be more about moderation, especially carbs
I live in hope that the low carb message will catch on now Dr Deakin has had the penny drop, but it will probably take a good few years for DUK to get on board.
Many newly diagnosed diabetics will go straight to DUK Website, and take that as gospel, as it is so well known.
would you tell a coealic they could eat anything and everything? a nut allergy sufferer? someone with IBS?
