Type of diabetes
Type 1
Treatment type
Insulin
I have type 1 Diabetes since 2010. I was on Humulin 70/30 till to now. I was taking 26 units in the morning and 16 at night but a week ago my Physician told me that it could not control your glucose level now. So i change insulin for u. Now im using "Actrapid HM and Insulatard HM". Now im feeling better with this Insulin.
But recently Celiac disease was also diagnosed which made me very sad. Bcoz now i'm fully on Gluten Free Diet as well Sugar Free.
Any one can tell me some Gluten free as well as sugar free recipies??

Zahoor - Do you use any of the recipe sites out there, like Yummly.com? I only pinpoint that particular one as it allows you to log in and save both your dietary requirements, but also your preferences, and your ability as a cook.

I eat a reduced carb diet, and am also gluten free, so I have saved those requirements, meaning the recipes it shows me that that into account. You do have to read the recipes, and some I have found with small amounts of gluten bearing foods in them, so have rejected them, but it's great for ideas.

In the UK, the Coeliac Society has a large resource library, but in order to access it, you have to pay a subscription, of £24 per annum.

Good luck with it all. It takes a while to get used to.

@DCUKMod i never used any recipies site. Actually i have no trust on the items food which r packed. Last day i visited to a store where i found some gluten free biscuits but it was not Sugar Free. So that's why i want such recipies which i can make it at home.

You could have a look at : http://www.lowcarbsosimple.com/recipes/ . Also many of the low carb food bloggers make many things that are naturally gluten free, due to their shunning the "heavy duty" carbs. I like ibreatheimhungy.com and sugarfreemon.com as examples.

There's also twosleevers.com who isn't wholly sugar-free or gluten free, but she is a low carber, and much of her food is rather fabulous, in my view.

For sure everyone needs to sense check a recipe before making it, but at least these bloggers are mindful.
