[Diabetes-talk] Different Diet

[Veronica Elsea]

Here at our medical clinic, they are pushing this diet as an anti
inflammatory diet. So if you go see a physiatrist for, say, neck pain, you
get put into classes to learn this diet. I'm having a hard time quite buying
it. I can see cutting back on things but total elimination? Not at my house.

Hi Dave,

As a retired dietitian, I hate any diet that says "no no no no no!" That's
one that will be out the door before you know it! If it doesn't fit your
lifestyle, it won't work, and it's not necessary. If you might like some of
the recipes, try them, and add them to your regular menu. Or you could try
out the diet by having one day a week be vegetarian (not necessarily vegan).
But really, leaving out whole food groups is unnecessary and unsatisfying,
if you ask me. Keep meat portions relatively small, eat your fruits and
veggies, add a little grain and/or potato, and be happy! It's best not to do
things that are wildly different than your normal. Especially when your
diabetes is obviously well-controlled.

Sandi

I have a question -- curious to see what people think ... at the risk of
starting a firestorm.

First, let me say, I have very mild type 2 diabetes, A1C of 6.6.

I just read a book by Dr. Neil Barnard, in which he promotes a low fat diet
as a way to combat type 2 diabetes. He says basically, vegan, no red meat,
no poultry, no fish, no dairy, no animal fats, and no eggs.  I can see how
it might work, but would hate giving up my meat!

Dave
