First I will give you my daily routine ...and then I will post what I think about diabetes...
NOTE: I am not medical professional....not even engineer...just a commercial person like most of you...
Plz do not go by words....I am writing here the experiments done by me..and what I understood...Plz do not trust my words...you do your experiments yourself and find out what is suitable for you.
Here is what I take :
1- Every night I soak a teaspoonful methi dana/fenugreek seeds plus kalounjee/nigella sativa powder.(Roast Nigella sativa before grinding the same)And drink that water and eat those fenugreek seeds and powder empty stomach.
2- Every night I soak cinnamon powder in half cup of milk,in the morning just boil the same add tea powder and drink that tea after consuming fenugreek and kalounjee.
3- Then I go for walk.About 5 kms in 50 mts.
4- around 9.30 I take breakfast..any sprouts or palak smoothie or egg omelet (3 eggs with yellow fried in home made ghee).And 4 almonds plus 4 pistachios and a cup of cow milk.
5- carry lunch to office.Morning breakfast keeps me full till 2.30 PM.For lunch I carry
1.5 chapatti of long wheat(long wheat 5 KG mixed with 250 Gms of fenugreek seeds).Plus any sabjee+ 8 nos coccina indica(tendly/ivy gourd) and one single clove garlic (this is special variety of garlic.you may google for same) plus pickled curcuma amada and curcuma longa.Just before lunch I take 20 ML of Jamun sirka mixed with full glass of plain water from patanjalee.
6-evening I eat either 2/3 cubes of amul cheese or half coconut or fistful charoli/Chironjee/Buchanania lanzan or about 100 Gms of home made butter.
7 - dinner same as lunch.
Not touched any fruit for last 6 months
Medicines- Metformin 500 mgX2
After lunch 400MG e vita+shilajeet(patanjalee)+coq10 100 MG(vitasonic)-Just started since one month.
After dinner Supradyn +c vita 500 MG
This is my daily diet. in between I was out of station for about 20 days...so was not able to consume long wheat or any of above mentioned herbs.Also for last one month owing to tour and then rains was unable to go for walk.

Great norreal plz share your experiment and experience for the benefit of members...also your daily diet.
Between after one month I am planning to discontinue metformin.
Diet is good what is your FBS and PPBS.
What is 400 mg e vita and c vita 500mg is it vitamin E and Vitamin C If vitamin e what purpose you have taken Vit E and what is the drug name of Vit E and vit C
Thank u so much dear shrI cure.it's a tremendous feat. Very well articulated for ppl with diabetes taking baby steps in the field of lchf&long wheat.
U have very judiciously combined the two
I.m sure besides me many more will benefit in their fight &get more resolved &as u said in many posts one has to be swan to find the best pearls for oneself.
Thanks &best always..May we all together win the war& .pls keep on posting.
JUST one query. I.m loosing too much weight lost8/9kg in last 6-7 months since I was diagnosed with &last 3-4 month staring on lchf .so the family pitches on together says why is it WY u look terrible with all the wt loss.
I have no other medical conditon. A female of 60 yrs with hb1ac of 7.1 in Jan 16.now down to 6.1 in April. Want to bring it down further but this wt loss is a Cicero with family.
lol.....Elevated tsh means hypothyroidism .hypothyroid will increase weight and not lose.
Searching60 need not worry too much about her weight loss. When D gets under control your sugar levels come down. That reduces body edema. You lose water/ fluid from your body and you lose weight.
simple. Hypothyroidism takes long to increase your weight.
Here a different situation. As your bs falls tissue edema starts resolving. Can you imagine the quantity of total fluid in a nonD? Well in a normal person kidneys filter 170 litres of fluid daily and all that filtered fluid except 1.5 to 2 liters that we pass in urine gets absorbed. Now imagine how much fluid we diabetics must be storing in our body. But that doesn't mean we have 170 l fluid in our body.
In short the loss of body weight is because we lose edema fluid.
Don't jump to the conclusion. It's an interplay of many factors. Well when you have reversed your D completely you should check thyroid function tests.
Aur aap ko weight kyon gain karna hai. Weight gain in thyroid is a pathological condition. I don't think you would allow that.
I am so sorry....I really do not know what this wheat is called in North India...and hwere to get it in Delhi.... but by any chance if you visit Pune....or if you have some one in Pune...I will surely help you to procure the same....
And about weight.......hmmm....I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy that I am loosing weight
I don't want to get it stabilize at moment...let it reduce....
But....I am seeing elevation in my TSH levels....up to maximum marks...
It is said when you reduce carbs....TSH goes up....
I really do not have answer for this....
May be ashwgandha will help you in this regards... I am not sure....
dear@cure congrats on your success story on lchf diet and diabetic health. very insipring.
I request all seniors in this forum to prepare a FAQ and a glossary of terms used in our LCHF forum. Because every time new persons put questions here about lchf terms and lchf diets . Similary I too got doubt about VCO if I am correct virgin coconut oil. What is the difference between availble coconut oil and VCO and where should i get, any precaution we hv to follow before consuming . I hope shri anup or any other senior may also give reply this things.
Even if you are travelling, it is not impossible to restrict carbs. Take only sabjis and salads when you eat in hotels. Preferably paneer dishes. You can carry with you nuts like almonds, walnuts and peanuts. Make cheese regular part of your meals. You can get cheese cubes easily in most of the towns.
Palakkadan Mutta rice contains manganese and zinc, which can have antioxidant properties and can protect the body from damaging poisons. This variety of rice also contains vitamin B6 that helps to balance RBC in the bloodstream. It is also believed to be capable of controlling Cholesterol. Red rice is completely fat-free and can lower the risk of obesity. Because of the rough taste, only a lesser quantity is consumed every meal. Red rice is also capable of fighting asthma.
May be some other members from Kerala can throw more light on same.....
yesterday had black rice....about 2 'katori full' along with 1.5 chapatti of longwheat and goat meat curry.
Better she checks at 2 hrs. That is what we rely upon and that's when nonD people get to normal bs. Her reading at 1h25 min only suggests that she spikes to that level. Not very bad because even a nonD can spike upto 160 -180. What is important is the bs at 2 hours.
please don't take haphazard readings unless you can interpret rightly. Or you will be unnecessarily scared or unnecessarily feel all well. Please follow scientifically.
Everyday we read here that some people attain good control, some lesser control and a few still struggle. I have been thinking all the time what could be the reason. Diet, exercise, stress, drugs or what.
Well since i'm of the opinion that due to our weak genes we get t2d. After a long thought i have something to suggest you all and to come to some scientific conclusion.
Let us all compare the result of our D control to BCF. You and anup are the best candidates as examples. Please share your bcf with us so that we can draw some conclusion. @Anup please start practice of finding bcf at the hospital which has agreed to cooperate you. Based on bcf i think we shall be able to make a treatment chart. Perhaps.
In conclusion, our findings have clinical and public health implications. In clinical settings, the lipid ratio could be used as an indicator of insulin resistance. In large health surveys, it could be used to monitor trends in cardiovascular health in diverse populations. Our results add further support to the notion that TG/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C ratios may be a clinically simple and useful indicator for insulin resistance among non-diabetic adults regardless of race/ethnicity. The TC/HDL-C ratio and TG/HDL-C ratio are easily available to the clinician with every lipid profiles ordered, thus eliminating any additional costs. However, it is important to note that, if TG/HDL-C is to be used as surrogates for insulin resistance, then they predictability may differ by ethnicity. Future research is warranted to assess the predictive power of these lipid ratios for the type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, or cardiovascular disease.
