[QUOTE="Emmotha, post: 1111160, member: 118431"] Hello, I am type 1 but not vegan. My brother is not diabetic but he is vegan / fruitarian. I have been tempted to try that way of eating but am so used to my blood sugars being stable on low carb high fat (a lot of meat and animal products), that I currently don't feel the need to make a change. I can't imagine bolusing for a 6 banana smoothie! However, if you can make it work for you and you're blood sugars are stable and you're getting all the nutrients that you need I don't see why it should be considered unhealthy. There are a lot of vegan / fruitarian Type 1s knocking about on the internet, give it a Google :) [/QUOTE]
