[QUOTE="Winnie53, post: 880829, member: 160246"] Alison, I'm also new to this. Learned my type 2 diabetes had significantly worsened back in February. I'm curious about all the diets used to manage type 2 diabetes, so have done a lot of reading over the last four months. The book I'm reading now, Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease (2013) by Robert H. Lustig, M.D. covers a lot of ground. This quote that really resonated with me today: "As you will see, all successful diets share three precepts: low sugar, high fiber (which means high micronutrients), and fat and carbohydrate consumed together in the presence of an offsetting amount of fiber. Anything after that is window dressing." (Chapter 17: Altering Your Food Environment, page 184) Of all the books I've read or am reading right now, this book has been the most interesting because it's well referenced and doesn't limit its focus to only one diet. You might find it helpful as you continue to explore what works best for you. :) [/QUOTE]
