[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1630783, member: 196898"] There are many T2D here who follow an LC diet, but who find they are able to eat these starchy foods on occasions. I am one, but certainly 2 years or so ago these foods would send my bgl rocketing. But for a year I followed a strict (for me that is) LCHF diet and reduced my meds, This and intermittent fsting seems to have repaired my glucose response somewhat, and I find I can get away with the occasional cheat such as white rice or even a chinese takeaway or battered fish. I even had some normal tatties the other day, I generally experiment, and allow myself a 1,0 mmol.l rise at 2 hours PP, and if it drops back to the pre meal or below then it can be repeated on another occasion, I avoid pasta, and I also find white bread to still spike me badly, but I have alternatives for those. As I say, my experience is unique to me, but I would advise that you persevere with the stricter LC diet for a while before trying to re-introduce those types of food again. You may be lucky, but you will have to earn it first. PS: bread and cereals are fortifiied by law to add B12. B6 and calcium to boost those nutrients but this is required since the modern processing of flours removes them in the first place. An off the shelf supplement could do this same job instead, I personally use a 5 seeded wholegrain loaf in my diet since it also provides fibre, and it seems to work with me, [/QUOTE]
