I just want to share my experience of having Bajji as my dinner some days ago.
I had 10 bajjis. 4 Raw Banana one, 2 Potato, 2 tomato and 1 brinjal. All were medium sized ones.
The Bajji flour was made up of 50% besan flour and 50% rice flour. All the flours were certified organic. Ground oil ( Cold pressed Organic) was used for frying purpose.
These were readings in my glucometer.
90 minutes spike - 149 mg/dL
130 minutes PPBS - 112 mg/dL
I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome of my experimentation. Hence wanted to share this experience to all.

Consumption of fried food stuff are not good for the heart, especially for diabetic patients. This will have long term effects.
68% of diabetic patients will get heart attack and another 15% stroke.
Diabetic persons who feel uneasiness should rush to the hospital immediately and get the treatment within 3 hours from the onset of symptoms. Otherwise they will die slowly. Usually the patients will tell to wait and see whether the symptoms will go sooner or later.
Your experiment is good for short term period but it is definitely bad for long term period.
I agree that my experiment is good only for short term not for routine or long term period. From T2D perspective, BS spike of 140s is not bad and PPBS of 112 mg/dL is pretty good. These numbers are better than having half a cup of rice or 1 chapati. Could you comment on this perspective please?
Thanks for your advise ramana42 sir. I had consumed them purely for experimental purpose. If you notice, my PPBS settled well within my expected limits.
Who eats that for dinner? That’s such an incomplete crappy food. :/ Stop taking so many carbs please. We need to stop this diabetes epidemic! For that we need to ban carbs from our diet.
Yes joshua92 . I agree it is not healthy. Not all carbs are unhealthy. I have carbs with good fiber and good fat. It has reduced my HBA1c from 14+ to 6.7 in less than a year. LCHF is not the only solution.
i would like to know how you have reduced from 14 to 6.4 .i am following lchf but mine is 8.2.even after taking medicine.if i consume a small portion of carb it spikes sugar level to 200/let me know how you are managing
6.7 is super unhealthy in itself. 14 was fatal. We don’t really need more than 50 carbs a day since in 2019, we don’t really need to do physical labour.
I follow LCHF and have HbA1c of 4.4 from earlier 6.5.
LCHF has automatically elevated my vitamin d and HDL levels. Triglycerides and LDL are at a record low.
I’m not ‘selling ‘ LCHF. I’m just trying to say that people really need to give it a try if you want to ‘completely’ get rid of diabetes.
Thanks a lot for sharing information on the impact of LCHF on Vitamin D and lipid profile.
Diabetes is a newer phenomenon introduced by change in lifestyle and other such factors. I have been eating the same diet as my great grandparents had. But why did i get T2D?
My wife's grandma still has rice and loads of carbs. Her age is 100. Why are these carbs have no effect on her?
Your wife’s grandma maybe blessed with good genes. I have a lot of people in my family who eat unhealthy food all the time. But they don’t get diabetes.
I question my genes too. But will it help? We can only eat right and exercise.
Very good experiment, how about steam cooking all items to avoid oil?
In UK I can buy frozen ladies finger. I put a small quantity in a small plate to bring it to room temperature. Steam cook with salt, chilli powder, turmeric and curry leaf. I have this for lunch with two scrambled eggs, add olive oil or butter or coconut oil. I do the same thing with other Asian veg as well.
Thanks. This is a pretty nice idea sandybrown . We do not get frozen bindi here. I remember seeing only Potatoes & Tomatoes here that too mashed ones. Please let us know if you have observed the impact of BS on the food you've suggested.
Thank you for your response. Frozen veg is quick to use where as fresh veg take time to prepare.
In UK, I can buy fresh Asian veg now days, when I have time I do use fresh veg. I am afraid I do not check my blood on daily basis. Once a year HbA1c, eye test and foot check. So far I am doing fine. I only get up once in the night to go for number 1.
When I do gardening, if I get any scratch and if it take too long to heal then I watch very carefully the quantity of food and what I drink. I want to enjoy one life.
