[QUOTE="Giverny, post: 1125598, member: 46002"] Hi Peggy and welcome to the forum! To answer your question: it really depends. Moser Roth is just my personal favourite - in terms of taste and price! There's a lot of evidence to suggest that these dramatically decreasing carbohydrate and sugar intake has beneficial effects for both epilepsy and diabetes (notably: weight loss, [URL='http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2898565/']decreased seizure activity[/URL] and decreased insulin resistance). Any 70%+ cocoa chocolate is a better option than standard chocolate - just be careful that you check the nutritional values to make sure there's not too many hidden carbs. You can read a ton about the benefits low carb/ketogenic diet has for epilepsy here: [URL]https://www.epilepsysociety.org.uk/ketogenic-diet#.Vw4dw5MrKFU[/URL] and the benefits it has for diabetes here: [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/diet/low-carb-diabetes-diet.html[/URL] If you're interested in finding out how you can go about low carbing, feel free to check out our 10-week low carb program at [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/lowcarb[/URL] :) [/QUOTE]
