Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Well yes we were taught that fats are as bad if not worse than sugar - but to me - even though "normal" medical patients eat whatever they now want (just, it seems, so that they can increase their diabetic medication) it always seemed logical to me that carbs which are sugars are bound to raise blood sugar!

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 I found that when I first was treating my diabetes that the "normal" diabetic diet made me worse. I ended up cutting my carbs back to 15 low glycemic carbs (after subtracting fiber carbs) per meal. I stayed on this diet for about a year and my sugar gradually got better (without meds). I am now up to about 50 carbs a meal and my body can handle them just fine. I do eat fats but only "good" fats----flax seed oil, olive oil, small amount of coconut oil, nuts, etc. My assumption is that my body needed time to heal itself and that was accomplished by giving my body's insulin production system a rest by eating less carbs and the ones I did eat were healthy carbs: apples, red grapefruit, vegetables, etc. Jackie - Jane MacRoss Monday, February 02, 2009 3:15 AM Re: Killing Diabetics Well yes we were taught that fats are as bad if not worse than sugar - but to me - even though "normal" medical patients eat whatever they now want (just, it seems, so that they can increase their diabetic medication) it always seemed logical to me that carbs which are sugars are bound to raise blood sugar!

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Well done Jackie - very few of my allopathic patients ever bother to improve things - I was interested to read you say red grapefruit (I was looking at some today and thinking I should get a couple) are they better than the plain ones? Yes, complex sugars (carbs) are still carbs after all!
