It was through a hospital. I went to two classes and quit. I followed instructions to the T. Blood sugars spiked. The second session I showed the instructor what I ate, what times, all my blood sugar test results. She tossed out the papers saying if I really had followed her plan I wouldn’t have such high numbers. I walked out. I am excited with your series all the what’s, whys, how tos. 😊 thank you

I was in the hospital recently because of diabetes. I thought my diabetes was somewhat under control as it never went above 200. Well I had to have 2 toes amputated. There was a nurse there from Jamica (I live in New Hampshire) and she informed me about coconut water. I drink 1 can a day for a couple months now and my readings are down near 100. I also take medications that I was taking before, Glipizide and Rhybalus. Do you think it is the coconut water that is helping me ? I am in my 60s and had plenty of time (5 or 6 years) to do something about my toes. I kept on letting them go because my feet had neuropathy and I had no pain. Thank you ✌

I eat watermelon occasionally. How it affects my blood sugar depends on the amount I eat. For me, strawberries are usually eaten by the handful. With watermelon, when my family cuts up a watermelon there is pressure to consume it before it gets old, so I end up eating a lot more than I would with strawberries. Therefore, I buy strawberries more often than watermelon.

I was pre diabetic for a few yrs. Eating sugar made me itch which was actually helpful as I had to stop eating it. Gosh, water melon was heavy sugar for me. The itching was unbearable when I ate that. I used to have to take anti histamines to get rid of the itching. Now I just try to be sensible and I’ll never want another water melon. I was fortunate to get the itching. It was a big red flag. Otherwise I could have ended up a fully fledged diabetic.

Hi Cathy! Thank you so much for subscribing- so nice to connect with you! The sweetness taste does not impact the carb content. However, since watermelon is mostly water and carb, it is always best to pair it with a protein and/or fat to help slow how quickly it is converted into sugar :)

Why not do your best to reverse type 2 and the underlying insulin resistance completely, then question whether or not you can add stuff back in periodically, once the metabolic system is working the way it should? And, no, I’m not saying go back to eating the way you ate that got you to insulin resistance in the first place, but when one is insulin resistant (about 88% of the American adult population), the body is carb intolerant. So, why not reverse the insulin resistance and any symptoms that comes with it (type 2, autoimmune, IBD, anxiety, depression, HBP, skin conditions, gout, dry eye, cataracts, heart disease, etc) first with low carb/keto/carnivore and fasting, then think about what you could add back in?
