Ryvita

[Ruler]

Sorry for all the questions but just trying to get a handle on low carb diet. I know that bread is bad but what about ryvitas and crackers, crispbread etc. Are they treated the same?

Have a look on the packet to see how many carbs are in them and then if you think they are ok then test afterwards and see how your BGs manage them

Ryvita did,nt work for me, try Burgen soya and linseed bread available from any supermarket , that gives me low BG readings and is way nicer than Ryvita, try 2 slices toasted and test 2 hrs after and see how it goes.
