Carb rstrictions for diabetics
Carbs,since they cause glucose in the blood,are a great enemy to the
diabetic.Even though it's not easy,a diabetic should probably restrict
carb intake to 50G per day.Famed diabetic doctor Richard Bernstein wants
his patients to keep daily carb count to 30-check Dr Bernsteins Diabetes
Solution on Amazon.The food triangle,for a diabetic,only leads to cardiovascula problems,amputated limbs,blindness,kidney failure and death.
I have had two diabetic friends die of kidney failure.It wasn't pretty.
A very carb restricttive diet,exercise and meds can keep diabetes in check.
Some diabetics,who exercise and keep dietary carbs low,can live without meds.Regarding meds,insulin is more effective and safer than diaberes pills
but insulin requires a difficult balancing act between insulin and carbs.
