i am diabetic is it ok to use raw honey for sugar substitute?

Answer 1

I have a better recommendation:agave nectar. It tastes very similar to honey but has a low glycemic index (meaning it is absorbed more slowly and helps prevent sugar spikes). It is roughly 1 1/4 times sweeter than sugar so you need less, and has been used for centuries. Also check out the book, "The Naturally Sweet Baker" by Carrie Davis. She explains several natural sweeteners and how to use them . Good luck!

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Answer 4

No for the simple fact is raw honey is full of sugar natural sugar and it can sky rocket your blood sugar, i am a diabetic and i dont like sugar substitutes but i do like splenda that is as close to sugar tasting as it gets for me.

Answer 5

With the newer types of insulin these days, diabetic diets aren't necessarily as restrictive as they used to be. Read here https://tr.im/5DNNl
As with any medicine or diet change, you should discuss it with your doctor. Fruits, both fresh and dried, have a natural sugar in them that will raise blood sugar levels, so be careful about eating too much. Not sure about the nuts. Moderation is always the key. I've been diabetic for 18 years and just recently changed insulin types. I love it because it gives me more freedom in when and what I eat.

Answer 6

Well, you are still using sugar if you have switched to honey. Honey contains 40% sucrose (table sugar) and 60% fructose (fruit sugar).
