[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 271863, member: 29023"] Ahem. Well Celast as you can see, there are differing opinions on this one! I don't know if you have a meter to test your own blood sugar levels, if you haven't ask your doc for one. Unfortunately they may not agree that self-monitoring is necessary in which case it would be best if you buy one yourself. As a general rule it is better to try and lower your carb intake to reduce your levels. Baked beans have both sugar in the sauce and the beans themselves are carby but there is no sure fire way to know if they will affect you unless you test afterwards. Maybe avoid them until you get a meter and then test two hours after eating, that will give you an idea of how they affect you. Of course it is also worthwhile considering how you are eating them, on a slice of toast or as part of a meal as that can affect what results you get too. Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
