Not for a T2 diabetic, anyway. Forget everything you think you know about nutrition, everything we've ever been taught, and have a read here, <a href="https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html" target="_blank">https://josekalsbeek.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-nutritional-thingy.html</a> . Then decide whether your diet could do with a tweak here and there. If not, then not, but if you can still cut a considerable amount of carbs, that'd be good news...! Practically all carbs turn to glucose once ingested, so ditching them could do your blood sugars a world of good. A carb heavy diet can be altered, which'd mean there's quite a bit of hope. If there's no wriggle room though, and you're already low carbing or on a ketogenic diet, it's time to look for meds with fewer side effects, because you do want to control your blood glucose to avoid complications.Keep in mind you could very likely hypo on a low carb diet combined with certain meds like gliclazide and synjardy, so test your heart out to be on the safe side!Good luck. Just keep in mind there are still options out there and you're not stuck with your current solutions. A diet change or other meds are still possible.Jo</blockquote>
