[QUOTE="Pollylocks, post: 1006491, member: 46639"] After going through this thread, I just think the importance of a meter to self test is paramount, because so many in here have varying blood glucose levels from different types of bread, some can tolerate certain types and others can't. I've always thought its so individual....I can eat rice and milk chocolate [not together ;) ] without spiking but according to all the rules I shouldn't be able to. Give me some mashed/baked potato or most types of bread, low GI, high GI, Spelt, Sourdough etc. and I spike sky high. Am okay with the Lidl High Protein ones/LivLife but nothing else and believe me, I've tried so many as I love bread ! As diabetics, we're all treated as 'blanket' ..... [I]this [/I]won't suit you but [I]this [/I]will.....hmmmm. I've seen my blood sugar levels so much improved since I went Low[I]ish [/I]carb but am starting to think that this isn't the whole story unfortunately because of our individuality. So I think we're on the way there and what an enlightenment the 'low carb' road is, has really helped so many of us but there's so much more we don't know/need to find out about diabetes. [/QUOTE]
