[QUOTE="suejat, post: 425803, member: 46714"] Hi Julie You probably won't like celeriac!!! It tastes like the nutty bit you used to get on the bottom of the celery head. I don't actually know what the glycemic index is for it, but it is a root veg. I noticed that the diabetes UK back to school cook book includes deep fried celeriac chips---- must try them!! I don't mind celery cooked, but not keen on it raw; like celeriac in reasonable doses though No chance of shakes on prescription here! In fact there weren't any shakes at all here that I could find.I ended up buying shakes made in France from ebay UK !!! Much more expensive than the asda shakes, and had postage on top.We live in the north of Spain, just 40 mins from the French border, so next time we go over to do some shopping I'll check out the supermarket. The instructions on the tubs are in French English and Dutch, so they are probably fairly widely available. One thing I like about them is that if you reduce the amount of water used to make them up, and leave them in the fridge for half an hour, they set like a mousse, so you can have the veg as a main, and the shake like a pud!! It all helps. I was wondering whether they would freeze, like ice cream!! It's always good when people like Prof. Taylor reply to emails. Especially when their reply is helpful. Many years ago I worked in medical research, and some of the profs were very full of themselves, in contrast to others who really cared about what they were doing---- no different to other professions really. I'm not exercising at the moment (as per instructions), but when I stop the diet I shall go back to the bike. I don't know if you saw the horizon programme about the effect of a certain type of exercise on insulin sensitivity and insulin production, but I tried it for a short time, before it got a bit too hot here, and it does seem to work-- just need to motivate myself again!! Thank you for the nice comments--- I enjoy our chats too. Sue [/QUOTE]
