The doctor or nutritionist recommended by the doctor will design the diet for the diabetic. If you go to Joslin Diabetic Hospital (considered the best in the US, and one of the best in the world,) they will say the same thing.
When I had my diabetes training class the nutritionist gave us a "Diabetes Food Pyramid" to use as a guideline. If I could figure out a way to get your address without putting it on the Internet, I'd just send you a copy. Since that isn't possible, I make a list for you. Oh, don't fall asleep already...
Top of pyramid: fats and sweets. Fats: Limited to 2 servings or less per meal. Some are -10 peanuts; 1TBSP salad dressing; 2 TBSP light salad dressing, or sour cream; 1tsp margarine, oil, or mayonnaise; 1/8 avocado.
Sweets: a substitute for one starch or one fruit serving. One serving can be -2 small cookies; 1 small cupcake or muffin; 1/2 cup light ice cream; 1/3 cup frozen yogurt; 1/3 cup sherbet; 1 TBSP honey or syrup.
Next tier down: Milk and Yogurt -2 to 3 servings a day. A serving can be -1/2 cup milk, 2% milk includes one serving of fat, whole milk had 2 servings of fat; 1 cup light, fat free, or low fat yoghurt; 1/4 cup cottage cheese.
Meat and Other -4 to 6 servings per day- 1 ounce (about the size of a ping pong ball) cooked lean meat, fish, or poultry; 1/4 cup tuna or cottage cheese; 1 egg or 1 ounce of cheese; 2 TBSP peanut butter which includes 2 servings of fat. Have 6 to 8 ounces of protein a day, 3 to 4 ounces at a time.
Third tier down: Vegetables -3 to 5 servings per day- a serving can be: 1 cup raw vegetables; 1/2 cup cooked vegetables; 1 cup tomato or vegetable juice.
Fruits: 3 to 4 servings a day- servings can be: 1/2 banana; 1/2 cup light canned fruit; 1/4 cup dried fruit; 3 dried prunes or 2 TBSP raisins; 4 ounces of fruit juice; 1 cup melon.
Bottom of the pyramid: Grains, Starchy Vegetables, and Beans -6 or more servings a day- servings can be: 1 slice or 1 ounce of unsliced bread; 6 saltine crackers; 1/2 or 1 ounce of bagel or English muffin; 1/2 hamburger or hot dog bun; 1 and 1/2 6-inch corn tortillas; 1 6-inch flour tortillas; 1/3 cup rice; 3/4 cup dry cereal; 1/2 cup sweet potato, yam, corn or peas; 1/2 cup cooked cereal or pasta; 1 3-ounce potato; 1/2 cup cooked beans; 1 cup soup with noodles. Have 25 grams of fiber a day. Eat 45 to 60 carbohydrates at each meal. Have a meal every 4 to 5 hours.
There is a book called "The Diabetes Carbohydrate and Calorie Counter, 2nd edition," by Annette B. Natow, Ph.D., R.D. and Jo-Ann Heslin, M.A., R.D. It lists foods with all it's carbs, etc. Reading food labels is vital to success.
Stony, a virus won't let me retrieve anything from Yahoo!Answers. I can to answering questions, but that's all at the moment. I have to call the Mac Genius for help. If you need to contact me, try, and I'll see if I can make it happen. J

My 5p is that it appears to be a troll. It's free, unsophisticated, and unlinked to the other ones. It might just be that the dirty tricks department is relying on volume - to overwhelm any opposition with the largest number of sites operated by low level agents, but that tactic relies on coordination, like a web ring. If we see lots of links to that site on popular forums - MSNBC, Yahoo, etc, then that has the same effect as a web ring, I guess. I know Violator has worked in intelligence - I never have, but have friends going back to my college days who are in the same business - Nobody will believe this, I'm sure. Nope, :) I'm not privy to any privileged info., so I will defer to those who have more experience in this field. Oddly enough, Poland was mentioned recently as one of the unusual rendition stations used by CIA field agents.

High blood levels of glucose can cause several problems, including frequent urination, excessive thirst, hunger, fatigue, weight loss, and blurry vision. However, because type 2 diabetes develops slowly, some people with high blood sugar experience no symptoms at all. How to treat diabetes naturally https://tr.im/e8eir
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes:
Increased thirst
Increased urination
Weight loss in spite of increased appetite
Fatigue
Nausea
Vomiting
Patients with type 1 diabetes usually develop symptoms over a short period of time, and the condition is often diagnosed in an emergency setting.
Symptoms of type 2 diabetes:
Increased thirst
Increased urination
Increased appetite
Fatigue
Blurred vision
Slow-healing infections
Impotence in men
If you think you have diabetes i think you should have a checkup and speak with your doctor just in case.

Hey there,
My quality of life has improved after reading this ebook about diabetes http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=549
. I don't think I'll be able to reverse my diabetes as they assert, but I found the resource very interesting and also inspiring. It's always good to see things under different perspectives.
Hope it helps.

Over 18 million people in the United States have diabetes, which is the leading cause of kidney failure. In fact, almost 45% of all kidney failure cases are caused by diabetes.
