[QUOTE="Faar23, post: 2261295, member: 524045"] Okay...so you have pretty much taken out everything from our diet. He does not eat desserts etc. very rarely and in small quantity if he ever does. Also we don't drink fruit juices and such. Um I will do more research and see what can we eat. Is brown rice or bread or flour better or would the effect be the same? Also this morning as a test I gave him a cheese omelette with tea but with only a little bit of milk and 1 piece of wholewheat toast and it was all made in butter and 3 hours later when he checked his sugar it was 9! which is a huge improvement from yesterday but still within the high range. I was really encouraging him to not eat the toast but...Guess I will try again tomorrow with eggs and sausages and tea and see if its any better. Baby steps you know. Another thing I forgot to mention was that he has psoriasis as well and he has had that for 5 years now I think. It's a skin condition. So he is on acetretin, would such a diet have an effect on his skin? Lastly, speaking to him about this he was saying would his cholesterol level go high if he eats such a high fat diet? [/QUOTE]
