[QUOTE="xfieldok, post: 2171350, member: 460785"] T2 is best described as a metabolic disorder in which we cannot process carbohydrates. He DOES NOT need carbohydrates in order to function, this is a falicy. I would also question the lentil curry, I cannot process lentils. Everyone is different and each T2 whill process carbodydrates differently, which makes recipe books a little difficult to cope with. You say he has tried low carb before, but for how long? Many of us on this forum (not all) control their T2 numbers using LCHF or keto. If your partner is taking insulin but using bananas and such like to stop having hypos, I dread to think what his graphs would look like/ Download the mysugr app. Record his food and readings before he eats and two hours after. After a few days it will give him an estimated hba1c number. It may not be as accurate as a lab test, but it is close enough and will show you upward or downward trends. I found it highly motivational when I first started. [/QUOTE]
