Hi Arlene, I'm hypoglycemic, and holding off diabetes.
I have two essential parts to add to the standard diabetes puzzle. They require compromising the standard medical regime.
1. Stop ingesting sugar and anything which tastes sweet. Diabetes means elevated blood sugar. Standard doctor advice is to stop eating fat. That can't be correct, and it's not correct. Simple.
Stop ingesting sugar.
2. Stop ingesting wheat, barley, rye and oats. Diabetes means fat cells are not responding to insulin. This happens because they are recognizing grassy grain protein ......gluten WGA ........as insulin. Insulin transports blood glucose out of the bloodstream into fat cells. Gluten is not insulin. Although gluten clogs up the insulin receptors in fat cells, it can't transport glucose out of the bloodstream.
Stop ingesting grassy grains
Your insulin should start doing its job. Your blood glucose should fall off dramatically. If you're injecting prescription insulin, the double insulin load would cause abnormally low blood glucose. You should keep a close watch on blood glucose during this regime, and adjust insulin injections accordingly.
Many type 2 diabetics stop being diabetics on similar low-carb diets, and stop needing insulin.
Of course, supplement with vitamins C, D3 and B complex.
