Hi and welcome to the Healthy Eating group.😀👍 We have a Pre-Diabetes Topic section and also other topics for ideas and suggestions for different meals/snacks, etc..

Has your doctor suggested that you go on a low carb high protein diet for tighter blood sugar control and weight loss? I’m a type 1 Diabetic who counts carbs., eats low carb. high protein and gluten free diet. I also have a CGM for knowing when I start going low with my blood sugars. I’m also on two insulin’s for long/short acting. The long acting insulin is for over night and short acting is for meals. I hope this helps you.😀👍

Want2BHappy3, who told you that once your diabetic there's no going back? It's just not true.

Several doctors, Ive heard that too about reversing it. So Who do you Believe? Both sides are about money. I've tried Alternative medicine, didn't work.

It all starts with diet.

Always remember that "traditional" doctors can be shockingly stupid. They spend years absorbing a mountain of knowledge about the human body yet fail to question any of it, preferring instead to prescribe poison after poison because that's what they've been taught, and, as you say, it's about the money.

For example, if you told those doctors that humans can survive and thrive by eating nothing but meat and fat, and drinking good ol' plain water they would roll their eyes and slowly shake their head.

Your right, I've had some very incompetent doctors? And the holistic group have their own incompetent people? But diet is important. Thanks
