[QUOTE="Deleted member 543160, post: 2465931"] Well. I'll be 80 next summer and I believe that high carb foods are [B]definitely[/B] verboten for [B]me[/B], I see no reason why my poor ancient pancreas and liver should have to work overtime on my behalf just so I can stuff my face with high carb foods when I can manage very nicely on a low carb normal full fat diet . I was able to reduce my glucose levels from diabetic at diagnosis to pre-diabetic in a few months with very little effort by cutting right down on high carbohydrate and sugary food. And by doing this I no longer need any medication to control my diabetes. If I want sweet, like @[URL='https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/members/triciaws.475901/']TriciaWs[/URL] I'll use erythritol and stevia - on their own or combined. In some ways what I eat now is closer to what I ate when I was young - remember war-time rationing, [USER=551246]@Gustavski[/USER]?? :eek: But I too would recommend getting a meter so that you can discover how well [I]your[/I] body is able handle carbs.
