[QUOTE="searley, post: 2423032, member: 31377"] Hi as [USER=372717]@EllieM[/USER] says type of diabetes is important to know.. the cause is different.. you've not mentioned insulin and only mentioned diet so going to assume T2.. but this is something for you to clarify with you GP if they have said avoid food types its because of the CARBS in the food.. high carbs increases blood glucose... so there is no point removing a food type full of carbs with another as this will have no effect. you don't need to remove carbs totally but you need to start looking at food labels and making sensible food choices.. fruit and fruit juices can contain high level s of carbs, not as bad as bread or pasta but it will all have an effect.. read the diet forums and ask questions there for suggestions of good v bad. keeping a food diary and tracking carbs may help you understand better ask you gp for your levels.. so that when yo get retested you know if you've made improvements or not [/QUOTE]
