Garlic: the element without which life as we know it would be impossible

Woohoo, I got lucky and voted #1. May I please select the #6 hat? I
think that will go well with my activity in the kitchen today. Thanks
😉

Sky, who is thankful not to have to worry about diabetes

P.S. These surveys are so fun and enjoyable.

But I was busy putting down laminate flooring in the kitchen! ( Don't want
to waste my holiday doing enjoyable things!)

Thanks for this survey. I wonder how many have or know someone with
Type 1 Diabetes. My 7 year old granddaughter was recently diagnosed
with Type 1 Diabetes and possible Celiac Disease. It's been difficult
for her to be on a diabetes diet with insulin shots twice a day plus
only eat gluten free foods. She is a very picky eater and only likes
pizza, spaghetti, cheeseburgers (on a wheat bun) etc. We all are trying
to cope and encourage her to eat the right foods. Rusty in MD

I'd like to how many of the low and very low risk persons have had glucose
tests, or if they are just guessing.

Dee Dee

I've had so many blood tests, that I'm sure I'm not diabetic! My
cholesterol is fine, my fasting glucose level is fine........I just have two
other major issues that can be causing liver, spleen and pancreatic
failure - the calcium and the iron. I'm working on those.

Dang, that's got to be rough for a 7 year old. Fortunately, there are lots
of rice flour substitutes. Have her parents looked into that?

Thanks - We are sending her a care package of gluten free mixes that we
made up from substitute flours. Unfortunately my daughter is not a
baker and is very overwhelmed and stressed. Rusty from MD

I hope it helps. :-)
I have a wheat allergy so corn and rice have been nice substitutes.

But, she will eventually have to wean herself off of a high carb diet...

Does she like beans? Black Soy Beans from Eden Foods are a true low carb
bean. Whipped Cauliflower is a good substitute for mashed spuds.

Consider joining one of the low carb lists. I learned a lot there.

I hope she likes meat...

I've been tested. I'm not sure what constitutes a "risk"; diabetes is a
disease. It has no rhyme or reason. This is like taking a poll to find out
who is likely to come down with brain cancer.

Not really...

There are early signs of Type II diabetes.

Insulin resistance being one of them.

I qualified which is why I've really cracked down.

Whipped caulifower? With a bit of butter and cream? I definately like
idea!.

Oh yes! A classic in the low carb substitute armamentarium. ;-)
Fake mashed potatoes.

I think even TFM has probably tried that one.

Lets see...

Yeah.

That list was most educational. I hung out there for a couple of years.

The idea for this survey came over the weekend. I was diagnosed with
type 2 last week. Genetic factor appears to be involved. Apparently
I've done a very poor job picking my relatives, as Mom and two of my
brothers also have it.

Statistically not quite as bad as it might sound, though. There are
11 other siblings who haven't yet been diagnosed with it....

Best -- Terry
