It's organic wholegrain pasta and seeded bread that's very very low in carb and sugar, I've been eating then si ce diagnosed and have come along way, but with everything going on at the moment am struggling and more comfort eating again and it's trying to get out of that,
But what do you consider low carb? I eat well under 20 grams per day... Wholegrain pasta is about 40 grams per 100 grams, depending on the brand. That's more than I eat in two days. Could be others are perfectly fine with that though, but have you ever had 100 grams of pasta? That's next to nothing. Anyway, thing is, if you keep eating carbs in certain amounts, your body keeps having to deal with them: Diabetes T2 is a
progressive condition unless you give your pancreas more breathing room... It may have been fine a year ago to eat grains in some form or another, but odds are your insulin insensitivity has gotten worse over time, as your body kept having to deal with glucose... So... Do yourself a favour and check with a meter what certain foods do to you. Your diet may have worked in the past, and
it hasn't changed... But your body
will have. Don't take it from a stranger on the internet, check with your meter. It won't try to sell you on some dogma or another. It'll just tell you whether you can still deal with that amount of carbs. (Test before a meal and 2 hours after it. If you go up more than 2.0 mmol/l, then it really isn't agreeing with you anymore).
Sorry. Wish I had better news.
