response" You spoke the truth plain and simple.
The low carb diets have been a blessing to diabetics like me adding
products such as DreamFields pasta, low crab crackers, etc. instead of
the high carb version BUT my dr. told me if I even gave a thought about
following Atkins diet like a few diabetics have taken upon them selves
to do I would be dead in 6 months.
Speaking of low carb products Trader Joe"s is now selling a version of
Bisquic dry mix for pancakes, biscuits, etc.
Friend whose young child is type 1 has tried the product with very good
results plus mix is very low in fat content.
