Type 2 diabetes: Can someone give me some tips about how to control blood sugar with diet?
My dear darling 82 year old aunt has been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. She knows that she is supposed to stay off of sugary food, but when the dietitian tried to coucil her about what food groups to eat at which meals, she could not understand it. Is their a simple easy formula that I could explain to her. If it gets complicated at all, she just gets lost. A: Get her a copy of the South Beach Diet. I recommend it a lot for my patients. It is so simple to use. She can lose weight on it too, but the main thing is that it is a very healthy diet for diabetics. Skip Phase one and start with Phase 2. You can get it at any book store in paper back or hard back.
