Ah, well, you see - we are. We use the GI diet as only one tool in a diet
designed for one purpose - to control blood glucose levels. By the time we
become diabetic, there are so many things wrong with our metabolic pathways
that we might almost be on a different planet to non-diabetics. As an
example, low-GL oatmeal gives me blood glucose numbers that would get me
admitted if I took them to hospital.

We can't help.
