Answer 1

Onions are good and should not be a problem.

From my exp, had to take med for 3-4 months then the doc took me off the med.

1. Try to reduce weight. (ask him to have smaller portions spread through the day)
2. Exercise
3. Eat lots of green veg. Specially make Salad one full meal or the major portion of the meal.
4. Avacado and Color ful bell peppers help a lot. Eat lots of them in salads.
5. Natrully reduce the sugar intake increase the water intake at leat 8 bottels a day.

Hope this helps. If you need more info email me.

Will pray that your husband gets well soon.

Answer 3

Check out Diabetes UK - they have a recipe section on their website. Not sure why to stay away from root vegatables as these are v. low in Carbs and so shouldn't really impact on BG levels. Also a low GI diet would work well.

Answer 4

Try a low sugar and carb diet book. Buy him Atkins food...it is based on a low carbohydrate diet and is healthy for you.

Onions are not root vegetables, which grow below ground and ARE roots. Potatoes, carrots, beets, parsnips...
