    jardiance

    I take it and it feels like my stomach has cramps, I get unpredictable diarrhoea and I don’t like the idea of bladder infection as well. I’ve negotiated just having it every second day, my blood tests have all come down to near normal, if low carb eating helps in the next three months hopefully...

    jardiance

    Jardiance removes sugar and sends it to your kidneys before it goes through your system. It gives you sweet urine. Your body has bacteria around your elimination openings which love the sugar and can grow into urinary tract infections. Male and female. I wipe myself with plain water after...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    My mother in law had some beautiful silver trays she couldn’t give to anyone in the family, same with crystal. One generation’s treasure is another one’s boring. Keep youngsters aware of family heirlooms.

    New American food guidelines - nod to low carb

    The new guide lines at real food.gov have a new emphasis on protein and vegetables. I wondered how Americans would cut back on potatoes, hot dogs and hamburgers but my husband tells me that this is the way all school lunches and food for the army, navy, etc will be done from now on. Very...

    Type 2 I am extremely scared as just developed pain and numbness in feet

    Also remember that sometimes your thinking can be your own worst enemy. If you think it, that doesn’t make it true. Tell yourself that you will worry when you get a Diagnosis and it’s not ok to eat rubbish food just because you have worked yourself into a state. My sister says her peripheral...

    If you get diabetes back (out of remission)

    Once a tadpole turns into a frog, it can never go back no matter what it does. However it can choose to be any kind diabetic frog it wants.

    People say - if you keep doing what you are doing, you’ll keep getting what you are getting. Instead of trying to cope with the results of your eating you might have to look more closely at your basic diet. Can you afford to ignore what you learnt on the course or could you make some small...

    Hi I’m julieclarke I’ve joined to find out more about T2 diabetes

    I joined the forum almost at the same time as you Julie. Do you buy your lunch everyday, because it’s very hard to buy healthy meals. I have learned a lot about how I need to change what I eat to help me with my diabetes. I eat vegetables and protein such as fish meat eggs. I stopped eating or...

    Type 2 Glucose Goddess

    My doctor wants me to register 4 on blood sugar and has offered ozempic and Jardiance but the side effects are potentially scary to me. I feel like I want to give low carb time to come down slowly

    Type 2 Glucose Goddess

    I realise that some topics keep popping up as newbies like me join the forum. Has there been previous debate on the GG hacks, and were any of them found to be valid or recommended eg eating greens before proteins. I haven’t had potato chips since I found low carb and I’d be sad if it was...

    Public Health Collaboration 2025

    I saw this conference mentioned on the forum, and I have been visiting it on You Tube. I find it amazing and so educational. Low Carb eating is literally a life saving way to live- it even improves your mitochondria or DNA, where cancer lurks. Thank you to the Forum for guiding me to this info...
