Type 2 Diabetes: Why you don’t have to cut carbs from your diet.

Today I am talking about carbohydrates, I have done a video in the past about carbs but today I am focusing on those with type 2 diabetes.
Carbs get a very bad rep when it comes to blood sugar, so today I want to clear the air and help everyone understand that not all carbohydrates are bad for blood sugar. There are carbs that are better for you and carbs that are not so great for health.
So sit back and expect to learn about:
1. Blood sugar spikes
2. The glycemic index,
3. Simple and complex carbohydrates and
4. An answer to the age old question "Can you have carbohydrates if you have type 2 diabetes?"

Enjoy the video!

There's been a lot of talk lately about ultra-processed foods as some new studies have proven that they are causing negative effects on our health. But processed foods have a place in our lives whether we like it or not, and not all processed foods are that bad. There's a spectrum, and we all know how to navigate this category of foods to look after our health.

So today, I will go through what you need to know. Expect to learn about
1. The different levels of processed foods
2. The difference between processed and ultra-processed foods (with examples)
3. Why and how highly processed and ultra-processed foods can cause health problems (focusing on salt, sugar, fats and fibre)

Enjoy!

Continuous glucose monitors have been a great development for people with diabetes. But over the past few years, members of the general public (without any blood sugar issues) have been able to get access to these devices.

Now that more and more people are wearing these devices to monitor blood sugar, it’s important to understand who actually needs them and who doesn’t.

Are we crossing the line and entering the realm of overmonitoring our health?
