Seriously Sam’s Club, Are You Trying To Make People With Diabetes Get Worse?
http://livinlavidalowcarb.com/blog/s...et-worse/15371 "OMG! Are you freakin’ kidding me?! These are the kind of foods they consider HEALTHY and 'diabetic-friendly' to consume: English muffins, soy milk, bread, tortilla chips, potatoes, granola, low-fat yogurt, whole-wheat pita, animal crackers, whole-grain pasta, fat-free ice cream, multi-grain toast, wheat crackers, tortilla, oatmeal, skim milk, whole wheat roll, medium banana, light popcorn, brown rice, angel food cake, tofu, whole-what bagel, sweet potato fries, pretzels, corn and fat-free, sugar-free pudding?! Looking at that list, is it any wonder why diabetes continues to run rampant. Can you imagine what the blood sugar levels of most diabetics would do if they tested themselves after consuming any of those foods above? Eating foods like those would NECESSITATE the use of insulin and medications to prevent wild fluctuations in blood glucose levels. SHEEZ!" "Sheez" is to put it lightly. -- Dogman "I have approximate answers and possible beliefs in different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything" - Richard Feynman |

Eating foods like those would NECESSITATE the use of insulin and medications to prevent wild fluctuations in blood glucose levels. SHEEZ!" "Sheez" is to put it lightly. They appear to be relying on some of the obsolete ideas of what is good for diabetics: 1. The assumption that starches alway digest slowly enough that they have much less effect on peak blood sugar levels than sugar. When this was finally tested, it was found that the digestion speed varies widely, with wheat, corn, and Irish potatoes potatoes, and most products made from them, usually digesting about as fast as table sugar. Sweet potatoes and cooked dried beans actually digest slower, though. 2. The idea that the brain needs all the glucose it can use. Actually, most of the brain can switch over to using ketones which the liver produces from fats, and the liver convertsproteins to glucose fast enough to supply the portion of the brain which cannot switch over. 3. The idea that the human body always needs a balanced diet. Farmers raising meat animals usually know that a good way to increase the weight of those animals is to feed them a diet high in both carbohydrates and fats, such as most grains. Perhaps they need to hire some of these farmers to tell them this. Robert Miles |

Of course you can. You can, and you should, if you want to become healthy, lose weight, get off of meds, live longer, etc. And not just those who already have diabetes. -- Dogman "I have approximate answers and possible beliefs in different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything" - Richard Feynman |
