My hubby eat wholegrain cereals,like basic one,we wanna change milkBeware of the carbs in the cereals more than the cows milk if your T2.
Yeah, the point being... Though there's a little lactose (milksugar) in the milk, there's a LOT of carbs in the cereal. And carbs turn to glucose once ingested. If you switch out the milk for an alternative it might make a difference of one, maybe two grams of ingested sugar. The carb content of kelloggs corn flakes is 84%. It's not just the sugar. Wholegrain cereals, same problem. There's a lot of starches in there, and those are the issue for a T2. Might as well eat a couple of sugar cubes for breakfast, technically speaking. *shrug*My hubby eat wholegrain cereals,like basic one,we wanna change milk
HelloHello lovely new member,
Well? You are right in respect that it may not do a diabetic without the means to "bolus for it" (inject insulin to compensate.) any favours.. With possibly just under half? The carb content of full on Coke (per volume.) & the same token in sugar snapping on its heals in lactose? Any fat content (not found in Coke?) may also delay or extend the rise in BG? Cow's milk can have a "pizza effect."
As an insulin dependant diabetes for as long as I remember it's also saved my life. "Evil" is a matter of perspective.
There seems to be a consensus regarding the Kellogs cereal too which I would agree but a little less added sugar than a coppy brand..
But we digress.
@Wojo38 , I believe from your earlier postings you speak on behalf of your diabetic husband.
I looked up the nutritional value of the milk mentioned & found "Koko" which fits your description. (Unless I've totally found the wrong product.) Seems nominal (marginal carb & "of which are sugars" wise.) compared to a cow & Coke.
I also understand your husband has a meter... Let that meter be the guide.
So wholegrain are as bad?what abiut weetabix or any kind of cereals?Yeah, the point being... Though there's a little lactose (milksugar) in the milk, there's a LOT of carbs in the cereal.

Sorry to butt in again... But it's not just the sugars, it's the starches too. Practically all carbohydrates turn to blood glucose. That means grain products, things made with flour, like pasta, pizza, bread... Also no good for a T2: Rice, corn, fruit (save for berries when taken with something fatty), potatoes... And yeah, beer. (Though there are some brands that are okay. Check here: https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/keto/alcohol-guide )Hello
Thank you,yes I ask for my hubby.
He eat cheaper version of kellogs i just call them like that becouse I dont now the lidl brand.compering to choclate bars and sandwiches he had before,I think it is better swap for that cereals,it is just a milk,we check once,after no food ,after a night shift his level was 137.he had 6 unsweted cookies and glass of milk and two hours of sleep and level goes to 200 ;(
Also after 4 beers and 2 sandwiches he hit the record 280 in the evening,that was weekend.we wanted to see how it will affect him,shocked!before we know about diabetes,he drank like 7 Magners cider in the evening then have pizza at night.(weekends)I dont even wanna think what sugar level would it be.we notice if he eat and do some kind of activity suger go down.
He drinks now non alcoholic beers but I donf know if there is such diffrece compering to normal one?
Oww and after Chinese takaway he hit a lot like 220.we keep trying now what affect him most
All cereals. Sorry.So wholegrain are as bad?what abiut weetabix or any kind of cereals?
Thanks for response guys
The thing is if that would be me i would eat vegetables and air.but he is tall strong men doing nights shifts,doing school runs and have not enough sleep.I work full time day he full time nights,we have 8year old to look after,it is very difficult for him cookwise,I need to find smth he would enjoy to eat and dont make him depressed becouse one of the joy from his life was taken away-food amd beer.it is very difficult be just started
