[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1497633, member: 94045"] You can eat meat, fish, oily fish, bacon, 97% meat sausages, eggs, cheese, butter, plain full fat yogurts, berries, salads, most vegetables, olive oils, avocados, mushrooms, tomatoes in moderation. Good vegetables are cauliflower, broccoli, kale. As much of these as you like. You need to reduce drastically (or avoid) potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, breakfast cereals, things made with flour such as tinned soups and sauces, most fruits especially fruit juices, beer, most (but not all) vegetables that grow beneath the ground (root veg) and of course sugar. You need to check the nutrition labels on all packaged foods and look for the "total carbohydrate" amount. If it is more than 10g per 100g put it back on the shelf. Best to keep it even less than that. This does not apply to foods you only have a teaspoonful of. As you are Gliclazide you should have been prescribed a meter. If not, ask for one or buy your own. A meter will be your guide to which foods YOU can eat. (we are all different) Test before you eat and again 2 hours after your first bite, then look at any rise from before to after. If it is more than 2mmol/l there are too many carbs in that meal and it needs changing. It is best to keep the rise under 1.5mmol/l. Keep a food diary including portion sizes and record your levels alongside. Patterns will emerge which will show you which foods YOU react to. (we are all different) Look here [URL]https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/60-seconds[/URL] There is a list of good foods and a list of not so good foods. [/QUOTE]
