Rum and what?
Alcohol with no added mixers that contain carbs shouldn't send your BGs upwards. And what kind of "second pill" did you take?

Eat something you don't normally eat? And what of this pill? It's not smart to take more of your meds than prescribed. This can cause a hypo. -- See my webpage: http://mysite.verizon.net/juliebove/index.htm |

Anything made with wheat flour, especially white flour, will drive the BG up... Also, pretzels are usually bad, for the same reason. I usually have 1-2 martinis, or a couple of 5 oz. glasses of very dry wine, daily, and the BG goes down, if anything, as a result. Will, T2 |

It must have been the pretzels, we were playing a board game and I had a
lot. I was told there not that bad. two slices of bred in a sandwich. And four glass of diet Pepsi. |

One thing about so-called diet drinks.... Studies have shown that they actually make a person hungry, thus causing one to eat and drink more. One theory is that the sweetness triggers insulin release, which in turn, provokes feelings of hunger.... At least this would be the case in a T2, where the problem is "insulin resistance." Will |

Being "told" something isn't bad won't cut it. You need to educate yourself, read labels, and test, test, test. two slices of bred in a sandwich. Depending on the kind of bread, that could be 12-30+ grams of carb. And four glass of diet Pepsi. Do you really think that Diet Pepsi will raise your BG?

Jennifer Hi Jennifer, I'll have to see what I can coax out of the "little grey cells"... Off the top of my head, it could have been something I read in one of Dr. Atkins's books, or perhaps in one of the books by Dr. Julian Whitaker... On the other hand, I am a voracious reader, and it could be from somewhere else that I got that. It was a while back. I'll try to check it out and get back to you..... I do know, however, that ever since I gave up all sweeteners, sugar and artificial, and went low carb, I simply have not gottent very hungry, like I used to. Don't get me wrong, I still get hungry, like any normal person,... just not ravenously hungry, like I used to. Also,lately, there have been studies that have gotten some exposure on the net about artificial sweeteners causing cravings and leading to increased total eating. If I am not mistaken, one of those articles ran in one of the ADA newsletters.. Will, T2 |
