Eating 20-50g of carbs per day will see your readings plummet. Keep testing and then if you want to - raise your carb intake until your readings stabilise at a level you are comfortable with. Good luck!!

I still have issues with my feet despite my diabetes being reversed. It's nothing worse than 'they don't feel right.' I had a blood test for B12 levels and that came back normal. So the nurse said don't waste money on supplements.

I'm going to try and bake that bread!

It will be closer to 15g carbs.
