[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1583028, member: 408573"] You can start by getting him to give up the fruit. Most fruit is very high in sugar (fructose) and will spike most people with Dabetes. The fruit that has berry in the name is ok in very small quantities and as part of a meal. The bread and potatoes are a different matter. They are, along with rice and pasta, the starchiest, carb heavy foods and they can be hard at first to give up. If he absolutely must have bread try Burgen bread or the triangular protein rolls from Lidl. And again, the least harmful potatoes are the new potatoes. But this will only work to lower his bg, giving them up might mean he avoids insulin. Good luck. N.B If you're hubby is on blood glucose lowering medication he needs to discuss any changes in diet with a HCP as lowering bg too fast while on gliclazide for example could cause hypos. Good luck.
