Good article but some facts are declared wrong like Salt is biggest culprit and carrots should be avoided. Yes, higher quatities of salt do increase the chances of Coronary Heart disease but it is not the biggest culprit and should be taken in moderate quantities failing which a person may land into the trap of Hypo-Thyroidism. So, the main does and donts for Diabetics are, (1)Lead stress free life (very difficult but pls try). (2)Play, excercise and do household work everyday. (3)Eat whatever is cooked at home (veg or non-veg does not make any difference if you eat hygenic food in adequate quantities). (4)Stay away from alcohol. I read somewhere that vodka treats diabetes so I experimented on myself. I checked my suger levels the day after I had vodka the BG level indeed dropped but the subsequent days the BG levels started shooting up. So, after repeating this experiment for 5 sucesive times and getting the same results I concluded that any alcohol (including spirits like vodka & Gin) may lower the BG levels temorarily but in long run they do more damage than expected. Also slcohol tends to increase the apetite that results in increase food intake thus enhancing the BG levels. (5)All Diabetics are different depending upon their body's inherent characteristics and what one persons trend shows may differ with other persons. Hence, one has to become his own docter for Diabetes and find a workable solution for himself. I am able to reverse my diabetes why cant you.
