[QUOTE="Fabian_Pruitt, post: 2240576, member: 521678"] Hi First post I've had Diabetes for the last 30yrs but only been bothered with it for the last five. Probably because I'm getting older (74) and it started to show its true colours. I'm pretty strict with my diet and carefully make out my shopping list accordingly and stick to it religiously when I'm in Tescos, trying not to go down the sweets aisle if I can help it. But I do like a pot of tea or a large cup of coffee sometime during the day. Just one cup does the trick. But I can't drink it without a couple of sweeteners. There lies my main problem. I can't drink either beverage without a sweetener in it. Believe me, I've tried on numerous occasions to drink it without but I can't bear the taste. So my question is this. Can I use Honey as a sweetener as I've heard so many people say its a better way to sweeten tea? I'm asking as I don't want to be unconscious a few hours later because my Diabetes reacts badly. I'm sure someone here has tried it. So please let me know what you think. Sorry for the drawn-out post but it's not often I get to talk to others about Diabetes. Should have joined years ago.
