I am newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes I have swapped bread for kingsmill and warbutons sandwich thins are they ok for me to have? because the Doc said that I should change white bread for brown bread but I don't like brown bread so I thought that the sandwich thins would be ok to eat. Could someone please tell me thanks

White, brown, wholemeal, it is all high in carbohydrates which will give you raised sugar levels. You need to reduce the amount of carbs you eat to keep your levels down and avoid the complications of poor control. Here's a link to a low carb guide for beginners http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/a-new-low-carb-guide-for-beginners.68695/
Hi. Yes, virtually all bread is a carb so not too good for us. Whole grain bread does smooth the absoprtion to reduce spikes but the overall affect is the same

Have you got a BS meter? By testing you can see how they affect your BS. I find that Thins will send mine high but I can manage 2 slices of seeded bread - which is strange because Thins have less carbs. I can also have one slice of the 50/50 bread which may be an option for you if you can tolerate it.
