I just want to copy and paste that article and send it to every doctor and dietician that suggests a jacket potato with baked beans is a good meal to have when you are diabetic, in fact ill just send it to the dietician that gave me that advice and then looked surprised when I told her it put my blood glucose up to 17.
There is lots of new evidence that supports what the Guadian article is saying, ive read tons of it, but still doctors/dieticans are dishing out the wrong advice, and for a newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic it just leads to a deeper feeling of confusion and helplessness over this condition.
I wonder what diet shakes they used? Im suspecting something very similar to the cambridge/exante type shakes, that are high in protein and sugar free.
Great article, thanks for posting.
