About a year before diagnosis I watched Forks Over Knives, and read Dr Greger's book - they appealed to me as I'm mainly vegetarian and the regime wouldn't require too many changes  to my diet - but a vegetarian diet for 30 years hasn't prevented me getting type 2 and all I can say is I feel tons better in myself now I'm low carbing - still enjoying lots of veg and getting protein from eggs, a small amount of fish and tofu. Maybe one day I'll be able to reintroduce pulses into my diet, but I think we all have to decide what's best for our bodies, trust our instincts and what our meters tell us and go with that.</p></blockquote><p></p>
