[QUOTE="ert, post: 2391855, member: 504712"] Bernstein lists carbs that won't spike your blood sugars like green leafy vegetables. That's all I eat. No more than 30 grams of these carbohydrates a day. For me, I don't want to end up with complications of diabetes by spiking my blood sugars by eating high carbohydrates. The Bernstein success for type 1's is that they reduce the amount of insulin they need and have flatter blood sugars. An average type 1 without insulin resistance needs roughly about 30 to 50% of their weight in insulin units to eat normally. On Berstein, I need about 15% of my weight in insulin units. That's not to say others don't manage their blood sugars well on other diets and lifestyle choices and beliefs. It's all about testing, testing and testing and seeing what works for you. [USER=541760]@Hannah Robyn[/USER] well done on your success. [/QUOTE]
