The prudent diet appeared to offer particularly strong protection from
symptomatic forms of diabetes, which are typically more advanced than
non-symptomatic diabetes.


The original Prudent Diet was created by by Dr. Norman Joliffe and was
used by Jean Nidetche for Weight Watchers as she had followed it in the
New York City Clinic. The diet which was designed for obese cardiac
males and modified for women.

Whatever. I regularly have veggie days or eat tofu so I don't really care.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Red meats and processed meats such as hot
dogs appear to increase the risk of diabetes, as does a heavily
"Western" diet, according to new research released Monday.

When I low-carb my sugar drops like a rock. Unfortunately, I never did a
good job of sticking with the low-carb way of eating, hence my lack of
success.

I am truly shocked at my success with a low cal diet. I never thought I'd be
able to eat "so little". It turns out that I still get to eat plenty of
food. What really gets my goat is the amount of food I used to eat. Two
months ago (or whatever), I could wolf down a super-giant McJumbo meal and
then be hungry again 20 minutes later.

That's great! I am curious, from what value to what value does it
drop... I experienced the same drop in blood sugar with low carbing.


From about 135~160, or as high as 250 if I eat a lot of carbs, down into the
90's. (Fasting AM blood sugars done at home with an electronic meter.)

These numbers (135, 160, 250) are morning fasting numbers?

Yes. Actually those numbers aren't too bad for a diabetic. I know a lot of
people with sugar up over 400, although I haven't asked them whether it is
fasting or not.

My own morning blood sugar changed from 90-91 (unchanged by diet and
weight loss) to 70-75 after beginning of low carbing.

Perhaps you are not diabetic. Low-carbing is really good for adult onset
diabetes, which is what I have. My brother had juvenile diabetes and died
from it at the age of 44 (which is how old I am now.)
