Hello,
the most effective diet for controlling diabetes is one that is low carb, moderate protein, and high in healthy fats.
You can look up paleo (their approach is quite diabetes friendly), or mediterannean (though you may want to reduce the bread, past, etc).
AND... follow a lower carb diet. Carbs can make you feel sick and get the runs if your taking Metformin. I am taking 1500mg, 500mgs 3xs a day. Always with food or milk. Did your DR prescribe folic acid with that. I'm taking 4 - 1mg tabs aday. When I was taking it in the morning with the Metformin I would feel sicker. I started taking th folic acid with my metformin at night with dinner and would feel sick.
It has great info on the low carb side as well as on medication options. [He does recommend use of sugar alternatives / artificial sweeteners, which I strongly disagree with / I think better to avoid both sugar and artificial sweeteners. But other than that I think his advice and approach is worth considering].
3 said L 5 should have it too but so far with the issue of coumadin the dr is leary to do it right now. And by the way, thanks for your reply.
I see people using sub to detox off of 100 mgs of hydro use a day...do not see the point in that one....u can not erase the inevitable...u r gonna have to pay the price at some time i have learned and am glad i started posting on this forum before i quit to become educated on all this..I have never used methadone so i cant give an educated opinion on how to detox...skippy did it and so did feomonn without sub...this is all i know...
Your optimal BG s/b under 100. If your BG is high after walking, it's because exercise can release stress hormones which raise BG temporarily. Add strength training in the evening & your BG could see am improvement in the morning. Also adjust your diet based on your numbers. Remove refined sugars & high carb foods. Switch to lower carb options. I've been eating Tomaro low carb wraps for breakfast instead of bread.
What are some great quick and easy meals for breakfast lunch and dinner that are super low carb... I am a type one diabetic and because of the medicine im on its hard to loose weight... But this has worked in the past and I am bored of eating the same meals over and over ... Thank you !
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.
