Hi everyone I hope you are all well. I've just been watching a debate in the Parliament on TV regarding Diabetes Type 1 and Type 2. Keith Vaz, the MP for Leicester, said that they are in the process of setting up a 'Diabetes Village', which will be a 1 stop shop for all diabetes tests - you...

Hey every One! Hope you're all well!! I assume that making dark chocolate from 100%cocoa powder with fresh double cream and butter, cannot be that complicated? For those with a sweet tooth, I would assume that a sprinkle or two of some Truvia/Xylitol sweeter should also be OK? I think I'll try...

Hey everyone! Hope you are all well! At my local drinking some dry white wine and stuffing my face with pork skratchings! Love the stuff! Who said that low/ no carbs eating isn't fun?! Cheers everyone!

I am still new to this, I am not too close as yet to the different measurement terminology. It looks like a minefield to me, however the very little that I have learned so far, your measurement looks pretty good. More like prediabetic, but please do check with your doctor. All the best wishes! Theo.

try this for a taste..Get some fresh double cream, whip it until it begins to solidify (thickness to your liking), sprinkle some 100% cocoa powder, cinnamon, or leave it plain, stir in some Truvia natural Sweetener ( according to the product info, it has no impact on blood glucose or insulin)...
