[QUOTE="ianf0ster, post: 2135968, member: 506169"] Hi Lottie, I wonder if you have any other misconceptions about the content of different foods. There are so very many things which are not actually as they seem for a Type 2 Diabetic - such as the Glycemic Index - unless and until a Blood Glucose meter tells you different all Type 2 Diabetics should treat Low GI foods exactly like High GI foods - because they all ultimately convert into Blood Glucose. And thus for most/many Type 2's they need to be avoided/cut down. In my opinion there ere are only 3 things that a Type 2 really needs: 1. These Forums 2. A Blood Glucose meter with cheap testing strips (because you need to test a lot at first). 3. Dr Google - to look up the Carb, Protein and Fat content of the ingredients In your food. [/QUOTE]
