Hi !!
I'm not sure how to interpret this??.....I'm type 2(diet and exercof approx: eight years now and have had some really "up and down b/s figures" in the past(between 4-11".....anything over 6 would invariably worry me,and it would be straight upstairs to my exercise bike and bring the number down to a more acceptable level(5'ish)......ANYWAY....I started cooking a few months ago(I'm a man of 70!! and only just started cooking!!....how embarrasing is that???) and am using coconut milk/cream in all/most of my meals.........I also have been taking part in a "diabetes trial" called A.S.C.E.N.D.(a study of cardiovascular events in diabetes) which consists of one 100mg tablet of aspirin and one capsule containing Omega 3 fatty acid,to be taken every day for a number of years(can't remember how many??)....its a "blind " study,so I maybe taking "placebo??".....however!!.....my blood sugars have become so much more stable to date....I can almost "speak" the figure before it appears in my testing machine window!!..... WELL... not exactly!!.....but you know what I mean??.........so now reading about the benefits of coconut oil/cream/milk,has now confirmed the reasons for the improvement of my b/s fig:s......I'm pretty chuffed about it and will carry on being a "coconutter!!" ........OH..I almost forgot!!.....roundabout the onset of my "cooking"....I started to take cinnamon in my morning porridge,and also in my evening cup of ginger tea...so MAYBE..?????????????????????....worth a try eh??
