[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 685023, member: 41816"] My view is that NHS blood glucose guidelines are not stringent enough. The NHS considers that diabetes is a degenerative disease and uses drugs and very basic outdated guidelines on diet to try to slow the patient's decline. There is now (in my opinion) enough evidence to show that by actively using dietary control (carb restriction) and proactive, highly tailored drug use, the 'inevitable' decline can usually be halted, or very much slowed. Plus exercise, where possible. Dr Bernstein's [I]Diabetes Solution[/I] and the website[URL='http://www.bloodsugar101.com'] www.bloodsugar101.com[/URL] show numerous studies and cases of how this can be achieved. Regarding eating a rich curry and accepting the inevitable blood glucose spike - it is all about making conscious dietary choices. The last curry I had was Chicken Shashlik with a rich vegetable sauce, onions and peppers. Saag paneer and brinjal bhaji. Water to drink. Coffee and a mint. No rice, poppadom, naan or carby content. It was a fabulously enjoyable meal, and my blood glucose went from 5.7 pre meal, to 6.4 at 2 hours and 6.6 at 4 hours. My fasting reading the following morning was exactly where is usually is. I have learned that if I eat the rice or bread, I will spike to over 9 within 2 hours. [/QUOTE]
