Diabetes Type 2 Support Group
Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...
Why are you doing this?
What do you think
You should do what is best for you....don't give ppl so much power to run your life.
I did give up the white starchy food and fried foods as per request by other diabetics and cuz they made me feel ill as well as wreaked all kinds of havoc with the diabetes. I get flack for it all the time, but I remind ppl it is my choice and my body.
If the meat products make you feel ill and it is YOUR choice to go veg...then by all means...do so :)
Personally.....I'm not crazy about meat, so I limit myself to the amount (I mostly eat chicken.....and fish...welll....yuck..lol).
Do what is best for you. The main thing you want to think of, what.... is best to control my Diabetes. Protein comes in all forms not just meat.
Yep will go for those alternatives....
I wonder if peanut butter is good for the heart?
