low carb

I know it’s slightly late and perhaps should of been posted yesterday but its wet and dull out and I think a small chuckle is nice at times like these.

We’ve all heard of and probably drunk a fair bit of bulletproof coffee, but have you tried bulletproof marmite? I sometimes want something savoury, and not full of caffeine - also I drink my coffee black, so I’m not a fan of putting butter in it. 1. Heaped teaspoon of marmite and a tbsp...

Anyone tried this ? I usually eat Lidl high protein rolls when I feel like bread but came across this when doing a search for alternatives. https://lodough.co Seems quite expensive but to keep in for the occasional pizza or wrap may be handy. 7.9 grams carbs per 100g or 2.2 grms per 28grm...

I made sure to do this just once I found something that would activate the yeast and rise the dough without it having to be sugar/honey. It worked with yacon Syrup, which technically is 24g sugar (fructose) but having inulin it also has a GI of 1 so seemed like the best option with the least...

Hello there! I can't believe I didn't realise this community existed before! I'm on the FB page but then realised all the acion was somehwere else: here! I love the website, it got me started to understand blood glucose values, blood plasma, HbA1c, seriously, I feel like I know about biology...

Hello! Bit of a long post! I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in September 2016, shortly afterwards I fell pregnant with my son. I had to really get a grasp quickly with the whole diabetes thing and get my blood sugars in control for the sake of my baby. Thankfully I did and there were no...

Hi On the site it says that the Liw carb program is free, but when I sign it it ask for £29. Payment, so it isn’t free?

Hello all. I'm new to the forum and this is my story. A year ago I was being investigated because hypercalcemia (high blood calcium) had shown up on some routine blood tests. My HbA1c at that time was 35. I was eventually diagnosed with hyperparathyroidism and had a benign tumour removed in...

Dont get me wrong, I am not a big drinker, but enjoy a drink on special occasions I.e. Birthdays, and in particular Christmas Day and New Years Eve. But what to drink this year, this is my dilemma. I like a beer, but this has the same sugar content as a mars bar, I like brandy and port, but...

I have been on a pump now for ten years. I initially started pump therapy when I lived in Holland, where they are very keen to get people onto pumps. I resisted it for years, in fact I only decided to go on a pump when I was about to move back to the UK because I knew that would mean I could...

Hi all. New to the Forum but not to diabetes. I just would like to ask people here what do they think of the level of knowledge displayed by the diabetic treatment teams they visit? I ask this out of frustration. In recent times I was trying to come up with ways to better manage my Blood...

Hi everyone! I was wondering if somebody experienced any problem with a carb cycling diet. Due to my protocol I followed 5 days of low carb (between 50g and 100g daily) with a light daily calorie deficit. Then the sixth day I dropped fat and protein intake and ate high carbs mostly from fruit...
