[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2250716, member: 93179"] The single useful piece of information my DN gave me on diagnosis was to avoid anything specifically labelled as "Diabetic". There are plenty of normal foods that don't contain sugar or contain few enough carbs to be acceptable as part of a normal low carb diet - including treats. That is not necessarily the case with products labelled as sugar free. One of the first things I did after diagnosis was to convert my baking to be low carb. Sweeteners such as erythritol and/or stevia are suitable for low carb and diabetic use, and nut flours, butter and eggs are all a normal part of low carb diets. High percentage cocoa chocolate is fine [I]and[/I] actually good for us - in small portions. [/QUOTE]
