cleansing diet?

Hi mtrguanlao, I agree that it takes real discipline to control diabetes. I've seen this a lot of times from my father who is restricting himself to eat the foods that he loves. But you know what, I can now give him sweet food shakes without worrying about his blood sugar. Because really, blood sugar doesn't only depends on how sweet the food we eat is but how low its glycemic index is. Take for example the sugar and honey. We can consume same level of sweetness from both separately but the result will be different in our sugar levels. Because honey has lower GI compared to table sugar. I know this kind of food shake that is really low GI which makes it very healthy alternative and still a sweet way to watch our diet. I'm not sure if you'll be interested about this but I'm willing to guide you in their office at Makati. I just want to share the blessing that I had for my father with others who are suffering in diabetes too. Because I know how my father struggled and did his best just to survived and spend more of his time to be with us, his family.

Hi aeisle! Thank you for sharing your father's experience but I don't have diabetes. But my father has diabetes. And yes,my father is lucky to eat some sweet foods not so often. He's taking some medicines for maintenance of his blood sugar. The food shake you're saying is great! How's the taste?

I see, my father is taking maintenance as well but I'm also giving him supplements that were good for his total body nutrition needs and also to control his blood sugar. With regards to the food shake, the first time I've tasted it (Well because I'm also curious about it ), Wow! You may say that I'm over reacting but it does really taste that great! So good that I almost hesitated to let my father drink it because of our usual belief that sweet foods were not good for diabetics. But its really safe because it a Low GI food. I've also heard from my friends, they often described it that it tastes like ice cream.
