[QUOTE="runner2009, post: 685742, member: 95489"] I'm 1 1/2 years into this and it seems to me this disease manifest itself differently in each individual for a variety of reasons. Of course being a T-2 is immensely more problematic trying to eliminate daily spikes between 60ml to 300 and following Dr.Bernstein protocol along with reduced caloric intake is essential. In my experience if you keep your BG in the lower normal range and eliminate spiking over the years you can heal and prevent lots of the damage that high blood sugar causes. And that means reducing the amounts of total food that you eat and specifically high density carbs especially processes ones. I'm lucky when I was diagnosed I was put on over 37 units of insulin daily and now I range between 0 to 6 units a day. Diet ( highly restrictive carbs ) and exercise play a huge part and following Dr. Bernstein's law of low numbers I can be more aggressive with the insulin minimizing my risk of a hypo. As for Indian food, I try and calculate the carbs and dose with insulin accordingly. For me I can eat a little naan with butter but my favorite Dahl is off limits along with rice. [/QUOTE]
