Read David Mendosa's pages, and tried his recommended Chana Dal - had to order it over net as no-one local knew what it was (no Indian shops) MEGA SUCCESS! Blood glucose spike only 7.2 after big curry of veggies and chana dal. could hardly believe meter.  Asked to see nutritionist in hospital last week, and guess what....she recommended lots of carbs and LOW FAT diet.  Am I from some parallel universe or is the truth about low fat/high carbs not getting through to most of the professionals in the UK? Or am I being seduced by a lot of 'low-carb' zealots with their research. (Dr.Bernstein et al) Who else has experimented with Chana Dal, and any other Super Diabetic Friendly Foods??</p></blockquote><p></p>
