Just to be safe, I'm switching from erythritol back to sugar. I care about my health and the @AmDiabetesAssn & @JDRF say sugar is OK for diabetics. Plus their cake breakfasts just don't taste the same with zero cal sweeteners!

Should diabetics add sugar to their soup? @DrBobGabbay and the @AmDiabetesAssn apparently think so... Check out another recipe from the ADA's own site, which is full of recipes high in carbohydrate and with added sugar.

#foodcompass from @TuftsNutrition is such a disgrace. McDonalds pancakes with syrup is a healthier breakfast than an omelette?

“McDonald's pancakes w/ syrup contain 477kcal & a huge 41g of sugar & 1.5g of salt. However, they do contain 10g of protein. Dr Mozaffarian, a nutrition expert & co-author, told @MailOnline that the whole grains in the pancakes offset the negatives, giving them a higher score.”

Diabetic followers, do you still eat rice, like this recipe of the day from the @AmDiabetesAssn ? What does rice do to your blood sugar?

Roller coaster blood sugars are so common in the T1 diabetes world. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Me: flat and stable all night, and after morning coffee & low carb breakfast. I’ll be like this all day. @garytaubes

In a world where cakes & pastas reign supreme, it's easy to overlook the simple truth: Low-carb means less insulin, less guesswork, & better control. Bolusing shouldn't feel like a gamble! Cognitive dissonance runs rampant in the T1 community, especially those who resist the

Diabetics can have normal numbers on holidays like today on Thanksgiving. For me just a small, brief bump. Ate protein focused and low carb and maintained normal and non diabetic numbers.

My Quarantine A1c. A marker that looks at glycation of red blood cells & gives a rough 3 month assessment. <5.7 is considered non-diabetic. The American Diabetes Association recommends diabetic aim for less than 7% a1c, which is very high & well within the range of complications

What carb addiction looks like... This guy is a T1 diabetic and endocrinologist. He's had and talked about multiple diabetic complications, yet continues to pour the worst foods for diabetes down his gullet and promote this for other diabetics.
