[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2331639, member: 480869"] Have a look at the nutritional thingy link in my signature and take a look at dietdoctor.com to get a decent overview on what’s good and what’s not and some explanations of why. The dire predictions are based on doing little about it, continuing to eat way too many carbs and as a result trying to patch the holes in your health bucket with sticking plaster in the form of medications. The meds help somewhat but don’t fix the problem or put you back in good metabolic health. Wholemeal is a bit of a con, as is low sugar. Wholemeal still has almost as many carbs but they act a little slower. Seeing as grains are kryptonite to many if not most type 2 that slight slowing goes nowhere near far enough to counteract the carbs. Sugar is just one type of carb (a fast one). Others do as much damage. Ignore that bit of the label and look at the carbs as a whole. [/QUOTE]
