[QUOTE="sugarless sue, post: 188801, member: 1210"] As a Type 1 you can probably eat starchy carbs in moderate portions and cover them with Insulin. There are Type 1's on the Forum who reduce their starchy carbs and have found that it helps reduce Bg levels and also that they can reduce their Insulin amounts. Care must be taken not the reduce too quickly as this may cause Hypos. This was in the next paragraph....... Type 2's, especially those not on medication, find that if they eat a lot of starchy carbs their Bg levels soar and then they have no way of reducing their Bg levels. [/QUOTE]
