The key is low-fat; keeping the fat per total calories ratio below 10%. Calories is the common denominator- never grams!

Ken, Yes, intact grains. Your experience backs up the science. The more intact, the slower the blood sugar-insulin response.
Happy Eating Ken, for your health!Post is under moderationStream item published successfully. Item will now be visible on your stream. -

Well Ken, now you got me wondering again. Today I was teaching and talking about digestion and blood sugar control. I talked about intact grains vs more processed. So, curious, do you find better control with intact grains versus whole grain flours?

MoreSomething I would like to clarify about potatoes; I do not eat them because I can get away with it without too much issue with my diabetes. I eat them because they are an instrument of my diabetic control. In 1989, upon the terrifying onset and prognosis of my type-1 diabetes, and discovering that foods effect are paramount, I made a vow to never again eat anything for recreational purposes. Never to eat anything just because it was tasty or enjoyable. From that point on, everything I eat is entirely for the purpose of blood-sugar control. That remains true today. It sounds depriving, but it is not. As it turns out I greatly enjoy all the foods that are used for blood-sugar control including potatoes, grains, fruits, and vegetables. Enjoyment is a side-effect. But it is a really good side-effect!

Hi Denise,
My method is different from Robby and Cyrus's method. From their website I gather that as with traditional methods, they count carbs and works to find the diabetic's insulin to carb ratio. I do neither. The similarity is the low-fat plant-based diet.Post is under moderationStream item published successfully. Item will now be visible on your stream. -
Ken,
Interesting again, your response and process. Curious, do you have any idea whether your method is similiar or different to what Robby and Cyrus teach as part of their Mastering Diabetes coaching?Post is under moderationStream item published successfully. Item will now be visible on your stream. -

For example, I don't think a Q & A session would work very well for someone learning how to skillfully pilot a commercial airline. I don't mean the SPP method is as complicated as flying a commercial airline, but it is different enough from traditional T1D control methods that the traditional method mindset clouds understanding the SPP concept. Everyone is so use to the conventional method that they try to relate the SPP to conventional thus skewing the concept off course.More
I don't really think your learning style is an issue with this. Everyone before you has the same difficulty. I also learn by physical example, experience and only in logical forms. I have an almost impossibly difficult time learning anything in abstract form. I am just hoping the book will be successful in getting around the conventional T1D method pre-conditioning. The SPP control method is pattern tracking, which is physical experience driven.Post is under moderationStream item published successfully. Item will now be visible on your stream.
