Diabetics can eat ALL chocolate. Especially the really good dark stuff.
Well, most of them anyway. Not me with my GERD.

Trader Joe's carries some dark chocolate and milk chocolate sugar-free bars
sweetened with a sugar alcohol like "mannitol" or something. They taste like
the chocolate you get in Germany or Denmark.

I have sometimes called chocolate magic because I do seem to be able
to some chocolate without affecting my blood sugar values. I suspect
it is because it has so much fat that it gets digested very slowly.

On the rare occasion I have chocolate bars I have the real deal. I don't eat
a lot of chocolate because solid fats give my liver a bad time.

Eat any good high-percentage (70% or more) chocolate in
moderation.

Cheaper, tastier and no sugar alcohols.

Hey Krom, weren't you going to research a receipe for a milk chocolate
almond bar?

G'day G'day Folks,

Well said Alan. If there is a short version that says it all it
would have be similar to what you've posted.

OK, now for the longer version.

I cringed when I saw the header. Surely this wasn't another
chocolate sweetened with fructose. Fructose does provide a lower
blood glucose level which is at first sight attractive. In today's
spin doctor world people are often persuaded by "snap logic". They
are too busy to consider all the relevant aspects.

Unfortunately fructose promotes the production of fatty acids which
don't make it far in the body. Actually they don't make it past the
liver. Put simply for many T2s its a matter of fructose in, belly
moves out.

Well the good news was that the spammer was promoting a sugar alcohol
based chocolate. Maybe we should be grateful for small mercies.

Fortunately though folks here aren't a bunch of dummies. If one
chooses chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa solids then using
ordinary sugar is not a problem. The good news is that high
percentage (70% or more) have little room for the other nasties often
found in compounded chocolate. Trans fats for instance give a nice
crunchy texture or mouth feel. So the less room there is for them,
the less there is of them. The logic may be a bit simplistic but
seems hard to refute.

Chocolate is a very important antioxidant. We get clobbered these
days with all sorts of advertising for different antioxidants without
realising that only some of them do us much good. Not only must
antioxidants be "powerful" they must get to the right places. Some are
good in watery situations eg blood. Some do much better in fats.

Chocolate is one them that has been researched and found to reduce the
incidence of coronary heart disease. That to me is number one where
T2s are concerned.

There is a lot more that can be said about chocolate. Feel free to ask
questions. Together we'll dig up the answers.

Best wishes,

Quentin, I have a general question for you:

I recently ordered "Raw cacoa beans" from a supplier on the web. Here is the
link:
http://tinyurl.com/3dpmu5

I was trying to find something with high flavanols, but without the sugar
and stuff that Mars, Inc. adds to its cocoapro products. My understanding is
that most (all?) processed chocolate has little flavanols.

Anyway, do you (or anyone else) know anything about this product?

Note: I did NOT receive the product I ordered. Instead, I received a
different product called Kona Kava "organic raw chocolate." Ingredients are
"cocoa powder, cocoa liquor, cocoa butter, soy lecithin, dehydrated." Yes,
it ends with the word, "dehydrated." I am guessing it is referring to
dehydrated cane juice...

Anyway, I can't recommend ordering from these folks since I got the wrong
product!

When I get time, i will write the supplier to complain, and I'm going to see
what i can do with the Kona Kava "raw" chocolate and what it does to me...

It's always great to read your thoughts here!

G'day G'day Jim,

Wish I could be more helpful. Although I'm aware that some research
was going into finding which cacao beans supplied the most flavanols I
am not aware of the results.
