carb count for onions

I am able to eat one slice of good bread for toast. You can also find lower carb breads. Eggs are about the best for the morning as for many of us it is the time we can eat the least carbs. Has she figured out her insulin:carb ratios? Mine are definitely lower in the morning (mine are 1:7, 1:9 and 1:18). Btw this is the Type 2 forum!

And there is a carb count you should be following for meal and snack times. I got all my information from a registered dietician; I also have my bachelor's in nutrition. I Knew before hand that there was a carb count just couldn't remember the numbers. The suggest for breakfast and snack time to stay between 15 and 30 grams of carbs. Lunch and dinner no more than 45 grams of carbs.

You need to be sure you are using the right Insulin Carb ratio for your doses before meals and that you have an accurate carb count. Calorieking.com is a good resource for carb listings in addition to what's on packages (and be sure to correctly measure servings). In order to gain weight you want to increase your protein and fats so that you can gain weight without increasing carbs.

If your blood sugar levels stay high even on low carb, then you need to be tested for insulin deficiency (ie. your pancreas is not making enough insulin). This test is called C-peptide. If you c-peptide is low you may need to inject insulin, in addition to the low carb diet. Your doctor could also test for antibodies to determine if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Have you had an Hba1c test? (Average 3 months blood glucose levels). Do you have any other medical conditions?

I think JDRF-VOL-SG's suggestions are very good, and would only add that it is common to have a different carb ratio for breakfast than for other meals. That's not only because of the type of food eaten, but because it is mornings when the liver is the most active with dumping glucose into the body. It's called the Dawn Phenomenon. It sounds like you're figuring things out really well, and I'd just suggest adjusting the breakfast carb ratio to see what happens.

to use insulin you have to count carbs and inject for the carbs eatin take to much insulin and you go low, not enough insulin you go high. insulin done wrong can do more damage I think insulin done rite more work than eating rite.

I do eat low carb. However, if you use insulin you need to be, aware that some carb foods digest more quickly than others, which may affect insulin dosing.

Different diets work for different people. Low-carb doesn't work for everyone. If it doesn't work for you, then you need different kind of diet, maybe a more moderate-carb diet. Try leaving out the sugar, junk food, and grains, but add back in two or three servings a day of healthy but carb-y vegetables, and see what happens.

We have found the Zone bars, and the bars that are low carbs (they say to count as a lower carb. than on the label.) Have worked better for keeping our daughters blood sugars in line. If you cannot find one that you feel is good for you, call your nutritionist and ask him/her for some suggestions. I hope this is not your last question and that you will visit this forum again.

Eating lower carb is also very helpful for reducing insulin requirements and keeping blood sugars stable and on target. Low carb foods include all meats, high fat unsweetened dairy (in moderation), non-starchy veges. YOu will need to use your meter to work out which foods work best for you. If you want recipes, you could look into paleo, low carb, mediterranean etc.

I do work out, but I do have some weight to lose. I know all about complex carbs, carb count, protein with meals,and glycemic index and insulin resistance. All I ever see online is pre-diabetes and that's it. Being that this has been going on for a short time, I feel that it may be something else. I am going to the doctor in two weeks, but I'd like to research other possible causes while I wait.

I have a type 1 diabetic daughter she is 7 yrs old and we count carbs. She gets so many units of insulin for how many carbs she eats plus so many units for how much her numbers are above what the doc wants. That doc sounded like a real jerk. My grandma is a type 2 diabetic as well and has many problems with high numbers and we just found out that she is in begining stages of kidney failure. So its deffinantly important not to give up.

It did contain sliced onions (but you could replace with thinly sliced fennel for a different taste) sauteed in olive oil, then add cut up tomatoes and garlic, once tender add a can of legumes (chick peas, lentils, any bean) drained, heat, and then add S & P and a handful of mixed herbs (whatever you have - cilantro, basil, dill, chives, etc.). Serve over raw spinach or arugula. You might want to look into some vegetarian cabbage rolls too!

Chicken Alfredo, it was good too.
