I dont like nuts and have my allowance of cheese with a salad. Is it ok to have a pack of snack a jacks. I also got some oatcakes cheese flavour. Im so worried about all of this and my GP is as much good as a chocolate teapot.
Hi
@sunnygirl. What sort of diet are you following where you eat fruit and have an allowance of cheese? A lot of the people on this forum follow a Low Carbohydrate High Fat (LCHF) approach to eating. We avoid or limit starchy carbohydrates as they turn to sugar in our bodies, and eat more healthy fats like cream, butter and cheese to provide the energy we would have got from carbs.So cheese is ok for us. Fruits aren't good for diabetics as they contain sugars, though berries seem to be ok.
Snack a Jacks are made from rice and contain a high carb content if I recall correctly, so I have stopped eating them. I don't know what the carb content of oatcakes is, but most cereals are high in carbs. If you think that LCHF would work for you need to check the carb content shown on packets and eat things that are have less than 10% carbohydrate content and preferably less than 5%.
