Is anyone here using the Atkins diet to treat their diabetes?
I've lost weight with this before, it's a decient diet and got rid of a lot of my problems, but I went off of it. I am now prediabetic and thinking about going back to it, but not sure. My dr. said she wanted me on a diabetic lowcarb diet, but she didn't give me anymore information than that. She also aggreed and supported me when I was on Atkins.
I've thought about other diets as well. I'll probably call her the next time she's in her office and ask, but was checking to see if anyone else has done well with Atkins for controling diabetes?
I need to loose weight, dr.'s orders.

I'm prediabetic too and have used the Atkins diet. I feel so good when I am on it, so I think it is ideal. Bad news is, I never could stick to it. Don't know why when it made me feel so much better. But if you're not eating carbs, that fits in nicely with what you need to do with diabetes

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.
Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

The Sugar Buster's Diet is much better for controlling diabetes as it teaches you how to eat correctly all of the food groups and what types of carbs are best for you, such as low glycemic index foods. In addition, you will have a better chance of making a lifestyle change using Sugar Buster's than on Atkins.

Atkins is very low carb and therefore does not require large amounts of insulin to metabolise. The problem is that if you are on insulin therapy you need to balance your insulin with carbs otherwise you will end up with dangerous hypoglycemia. If your not on insulin then the atkins diet may be benificial to you. You need to do this in consultation with your docor. Jules, Australia.
