While sorting out some papers from the hospital I came across a leaflet which I dont remember o have seeen before ,obviously given to me with others from the hospital diabetes clinic
From time to time I see posts on here denying that patients are advised to eat starchy carbs at every meal. I know I wasnt actually told to do this but I didn't receive any particular dietary advice
eexcept a mild suggestion to look at GI which I was already doing.
This leaflet divides carbohydates into Starchy and sugary. It gives examples of each and goes on to say that starchy carbohydrates help to keep blood suga levels steady because they cause a gradual rise and fall in blood sugar levels.
It is recommended to include these foods at every meal. They are naturally lower in sugar and fat than sugary cabs so are a good choice to fill you up and help you lose weight.
Hmmmmm
