[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 1639318, member: 256617"] Hi [USER=458183]@Oswas99[/USER] your current diet (way of eating) appears to follow the general guidelines of grains and low fat, but the carbs you are choosing look like they are not compatible with your physiology - both wholemeal and porridge can raise in some high blood sugar. You might want to try an alternative approach. Here’s what I would do in your shoes as I did soda bread, porridge and low fat yogurt to start with. Replace I assume wholemeal bread with either bacon / high meat sausages, eggs, tomatoes and mushrooms or nuts (cashews in moderation as they are higher carb), berries and full fat Greek yogurt. Fish is great especially oily types, as are above ground vegetables such as spinach, greens, cauliflower, broccoli etc. The foods I have mentioned have a much lower glycemic index and glycemic load which should go towards what you are looking for. If you are able to walk after eating this will also improve matters. [/QUOTE]
