Some carbs can raise you more than others. Ie. the sweet potato worked better for you than the rye bread. When you are eating low carb make sure you eat more fat (unprocessed is best) so that you won't feel hungry. Nuts, full fat dairy, avocado, butter, olive oil, fat that comes with the meat are all good sources. However, do avoid deep fried foods and transfats that are present in many processed foods.
If you are interested look up the book Diabetes Solutions by Dr.
If you are still using white bread try switching to wheat, spelt, rye bread etc.
e have smaller portions of potatoes, rice, bread...instead go for better carb options like brown rice, rye bread etc and keep the portions small of these small). Increase your vegetable portions and meat protein if you're not vegetarian. Ive noticed my levels spike when I have too much starch at one meal, so now I really have to watch it. Its annoying but they're forcing the issue, so I guess I have to accept it.
Low carb. Cut out soda, candy & other sweets. Bump up your veggies & fruits, lean cuts of meat. Exercise.
I have (had) Pansinusitus since June 2015, and I had several courses of antibiotics and Cortizol sprays and inhalers, which contributed to my eye sickness, which I only diagnosed a year later (CSCR)
I struggled a lot with breathing, hissing in my lungs and a severe blocked nose, and a LOT of mucus. I used boxes and boxes of tissue.
During August 2016 I took action, and visited a lot of specialists.
EAS makes a great pre- made low carb protein shake, Walmart carries it. I normally eat about 1500 calories. Here is my daily diet:
2 eggs and I piece of whole wheat or rye bread with 1 tbsp all natural peanut butter
snack: low carb protein shake and Fiber Plus brand fiber bar
lunch: flavored tuna, chicken with salad, or sandwhich with some kind of meat, 1 piece of fruit (apple or serving of grapes), and 2 little pieces of candy, normally some kind of Reese's!
I am still under active and was told it will be that way for the rest of my life, I must take Levothyroxine every day except 1. I do it 6 days a week. I did mention to my Dr the additional testing that can be done but I can't remember everything he said but he was not convinced it would be of any benefit to me. I even printed some link I got with what exactly I was talking about. He wanted to keep it and read it, so I won't see him till October.
There's nothing wrong with the veggies you mention. The only reason they might cause bloating is because they are chock full of fiber and if you aren't used to eating a lot fiber, it can cause you to bloat.
Broccoli is a goitrogen, which can interfere with thyroid function, but only when eaten raw. Cooking foods that are considered goitrogens, takes away the goitrogenic properties.
You mention gluten in your title, then rye vs white bread.
I have had type 2 diabetes for 16 years and have always had trouble with my levels. An uncontrolable brittle diabetic my doc calld me. Playing defense taking 3 different types of insulin a day all day. Recently my doc changed my insulins to 1 toujeo but it is impartive that I take fast acting with every meal according to the carb count.I have no idea what I'm doing. And despite my efforts they still sky rocket after I eat.
If a person has celicas disease their body is not able to digest a certain protein found in wheat, barley, rye or malt and constant diarrhea is a classic symptom. What I find amazing is I too have experienced exactly what you have. I remember a few years ago when I could not eat anything without going directly to the restroom immediately after eating.
Search "celiacs disease" or "glutten intollerance" and see if any of your symptoms fall into this problem.
My back is now to the point where it has a very unnatural curve in it due to the distension pulling. The only way to get it down is to eat a high protein low carb diet. I have been told things like its IBS though none of the IBS treatments work, you just put on weight easy but none of my other areas such as my face, hands, chest areas get any fatter. This problem is running my life. All of my scans such as colonoscopy, gastroscopy, xray, ultrasound, blood tests are normal. Please help!
s own has some low cal, low carb whole wheat with fiber,white and honey wheat bread. I usually have one slice toasted for breakfast with 2 eggs and cheese (free carbs) of course I'm not an expert, just been learning as I go. I still have quite a ways until my due date. It's a lot of trial and error as you learn. I also never deprive myself. I do portion control. If I want pasta and garlic bread I'll have a small portion of it and lots of salad or veggies.
I am also not able to eat ANY bread or cereal because my body has a hard time processing it. I can eat 20g of carb in the form of a whole grain cereal and my blood sugar after looks as though I ate 60g of another type of carb. I've even tried high protein whole grain cereals...same thing happens.
I love oatmeal and whole wheat bread...I haven't been able to eat either since I developed GDM...after baby is born, I am SO buying a box of my favorite cereal and some oatmeal!
