I know that type 1 diabetes can't be avoided, and it's pretty much genetic. Also it's most common in white people. But I'm black girl with no family history of type 1 diabetes. I'm the only person in my family that has it. Do you or anyone you know have the same situation, and do you know how I could've gotten it?

How do I utilize the index of low glycemic foods? What combintaions work best (protein, carb, milk/dairy, etc) ? Are there comprehensive lists available? What "low glycemic foods" do I avoid? I suspect I'm a borderline diabetic and need help reducing the stress my body is subject to when I don't eat properly.

My bf was diagnosed with diabetes in May, type one, and he's just turned 14 and is finding it hard to cope.
I want to help and support him, but I know nothing about diabetes, except it affects the blood sugar levels.

So, can someone tell me some basic things, like what he should be eating, how often he should be injecting, checking sugar levels and at what times. what should his levels be at different times of the day?
How low is dangerous, and how high is dangerous?
Anything else that is important?

Thank-You. =]

I've had type2 with insulin for about 5 years. I also suffer with depression which I'm sure has a lot to do with it. I am so addicted to pepsi, chocolate and white bread!!!!! I just can't live without these things and sometimes even "binge". It's like a horrible secret in my life!!!
I don't know what to do!!!!! Logically, I know this is killing me but I can't help myself. The cravings are just too strong!!! I feel so desperate. I'm just being honest and trying to see if there is anyone out there experiencing something similar. Or is it just me?????? I've heard sugar cravings can be a part of diabetes but I didn't know these could take control of my life. I feel like a drug addict who's out of control!!!! Help!!!
Please only understanding answers- I beat myself up enough over this & it only makes things worse!!! I need some practical advice!!!

I'm not doing this to lose weight but to cleanse the body. I'm going to try it for three days.

I am a diabetic and my reading is usually about 7-8, after 8 hours fasting ( sorry, cant remember the unit on my tester). As this is a borderline case, I had actually stop my medication for a year already, and the reading is still the same (does not go up). This is because I control the intake of sweet food like sugar, candy, chocolate, cookies, cakes and so on. I love fruit but always afraid of taking too much of them as many are sweet like grape, apple, pears, papaya, waternelon (very sweet), honeydew (very sweet). Are such fruits detrimental to a diabetic's well being?
