[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 1202315, member: 160246"] Thanks Avocado Sevenfold. I ask because I personally don't tolerate grains or beans well so I'm trying to figure out how people like me eat a vegan/vegetarian diet. It may be that I'm too insulin resistant. That said, I ate hummus and vegetables in place of lunch two times this week and it wasn't too much of a problem. I wonder if each type of legume affects blood glucose levels differently. Perhaps I can tolerate some well but not others. Another thought... Perhaps when we begin eating a new food it takes time for the microbiota to adapt and in time we're be better able to tolerate a new food. There's still so much I don't understand about diabetes. We currently have three members of our diabetes group who are eating a vegan/vegetarian diet. One is doing fine, the other two are and aren't for different reasons. It's a bit of a process to figure out what works and what doesn't. They'll eventually get there. I'll continue to mention Vegetarian Diet Forum to them. I'm so happy we have your forum now. [/QUOTE]
