[QUOTE="foxyccc, post: 829900, member: 47427"] I would recommend asking your diabetic nurse or gp to put you on their diabetic education programme. I did a programme called EXPERT which was two hours one evening a week for six weeks, I am type two diabetic and the course covered what diabetes is, medication, diet and complications hypos etc. It was extremely informative, and we had a least two weeks covering foods and how different foods affect our blood glucose readings. The course was very useful in learning how to eat with diabetes, and they basically recommended a low sugar low fat, healthy diet the same as everyone else. They advise you only to drink tiny amounts of fruit juice as this is high in sugar, but to eat small amounts of fruit. I carry a small banana in my bag as a snack. Some fruits are higher in sugar such as pineapple. The EXPERT programme gave us a booklet which confirmed everything we learnt on the course and all the information on diet. I certainly would recommend this course or similar course as once you have the information it is easier to manage the diabetes. [/QUOTE]
