[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 1652960, member: 196898"] The advice regarding the fruit is spot on for a T2D. We ought to avoid the tropical fruits especially when they are ripe, to reduce the sugar intake. The sugar in fruit is mainly fructose, which our bodies do not convert to glucose, but it gets shunted direct to the liver and converted into fat without passing GO (i.e. the bgl meter. So for a long time fruit was considered heathy for diabetics, but recent studies show it can add to the adipose fat that symbolises Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome. Be frugal with the proteins too. since these all get converted to glucose just like carbs, and will push bgl up albeit at a slower rate than carbs. the recommendation is around 100g per kg of lean body mass (not 'weight' as seen on scales since this includes the excess fat). Typically this works out at less than 100g per day for most people. [/QUOTE]
