[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2007429, member: 256617"] For a long time I was angry at the guidelines. I purposefully ate the oats, white flour pancakes just with lemon, low fat cherry corner yogurt, punnets of grapes and branded Orange juice fruits etc. No directly added sugar in anything, minimal alcohol. I would take my time around a supermarket and chose dates for example. Within 1 month I was on the road to raging diabetes after making the effort to be healthier and exacerbated the situation by drinking litres of more Orange when the diabetic thirst came in. I do feel everyone should have a basic knowledge that carbs turn to sugar which should be taught, had I have known this, my logic would have taken me to different choices. I only had to lose 7 kg to turn 134 HbA1c to 41, food knowledge is key. So the fat lie as I see it, producing a default carb environment is a population crime. Strong words but my diet if laid out looked typically healthy, e.g. Brown / basmati rice, home made soda and banana breads, mainly home cooked meals - unfortunately full of carbs. [/QUOTE]
