13 years ago @ Macleans.ca - White rice raises diab... · 0 replies · +1 points

I am a 54 year old Englishman with Type II diabetes. Ten years ago before being diagnosed I weighed in at 13stones 10lbs. I started my own private medical practice and found that time constraints meant that I "grabbed a sandwich" or quick fix foods all too quickly. Within 6 months I burgeoned to 21stones 7lbs.____Recently I went on a diet to both lose the weight and rebuild my diet by introducing food groups and testing my hunger levels and sugar levels after my meals.____I was absolutely astonished at the result. During the week of "grains" I introduced food with white flour - specifically- crepes and tested my levels. My now even and moderated sugar levels shot to two to three times their levels.____The following week I conducted the same experiment with White Pasta. I would urge serious studies into the catalytic effect of these agents and ask why they use one by-product (ALLOXAN) in laboratory experiments to induce diabetes in lab rats.____Any thoughts?
