American Diabetes Association

These are actual quotes from the American Diabetes Association website:

Myth #5: If you have diabetes, you should only eat small amounts of starchy
foods, such as bread, potatoes and pasta.
Starchy foods are part of a healthy meal plan. What is important is the
portion size. Whole grain breads, cereals, pasta, rice and starchy
vegetables like potatoes, yams, peas and corn can be included in your meals
and snacks. The key is portions. For most people with diabetes, having 3-4
servings of carbohydrate-containing foods is about right. Whole grain
starchy foods are also a good source of fiber, which helps keep your gut
healthy.You decide to swap two slices of bread for two slices of low-calorie
bread and have the cookies -- it's an even trade. Your total amount of
carbohydrate remains the same for the meal.

My point? As I often say, while the "official" organizations like the
American Diabetes Association, the American heart Association, and the USDA
dominate the message provided to mainstream Americans, to those of us who
know better, they have become irrelevant. You can see how obviously
boneheaded their advice is. I'd go so far as to say that, if you want
diabetes, follow the American Diabetes Association diet. If you have
diabetes, and you'd like to accelerate complications like kidney disease,
heart disease, and neuropathy, then follow the American Diabetes Association
diet.

I'm going to bet that American Diabetes Association sponsors like Lilly,
Novo Nordisk, Merck, Pfizer, Abbott ($1 million or more annual
contributions) and Cadbury Schweppes (3-year, multi-million dollar support
for Weight Loss Matters program) will continue to charge full-speed ahead to
maintain the status quo.

And if you gain, say, 30 or 40 lbs eating these foods. . . well, we've got a
treatment for that. Merck's Januvia , for instance, can help you out for
only about $200 a month!

Looking at the facts this way, and it seems like some cheap conspiracy
theory: They're all out to get us. Dispense information that virtually
guarantees propagation of the disease, and all your friends and cronies
profit. I don't know if it is or it isn't, but it sure smells like it
sometimes.

Smarter to simple eat less, down to the right amount.

Be hungry... be healthy... be hungrier... be euglycemic...

Prayerfully in the awesome name of LORD Jesus Christ,

Just for the hell of it, and to settle the question once and for all, what I
would really like to see is - a bunch of us eating from an ADA provided
menu - breakfast, lunch and dinner - for one day with 1 and 2 hour pp tests
after each meal. I don't mean "include this and that in each meal," but
rather specifically recommended meals. Then, post the results on a website.
Interesting, huh? Obviously, most of us, myself included, will say, "I
already know what will happen," or something along that line, but we can't
actually point at stats and say, "See?"

Unfortunately I lost all of my old excel records when I had
a hard disc crash three years ago.

But, on those I had exactly what you describe. I started
those records before I read "test, test, test" and I was
being trained in the Diabetes Australia (read ADA) diet by a
dietician.

The numbers weren't pretty. Far too many way over 10(180) at
two hours - or occasionally way too low at two hours. It
wasn't until I started one-hour tests that I discovered
those were reactive lows.

But some of the numbers weren't bad at FBG and pre-dinner;
the only times I was supposed to test. Even then I did some
post-prandials, but only at two hours.


Cheers, Alan, T2, Australia.

I haven't actually seen an approved daily menu... probably haven't looked
hard enough. All I've seen is "include this and that."

What's this "right amount" you keep beating on about everyday? Does
this "right amount" vary from person to person?

Thank you for your answer re: "right amount".

Well.. does this "right amount" vary from person to person? What
considerations do you take to determine this right amount?

Thanks.

But every adult has different requirements.

So your diet does not take requirements of individuals into
consideration?

Those requirements are not known to man but are known to GOD.

By GOD, those requirements are met at the intestinal brush border and
not at the mouth, by us,

The exact nutritional requirements of individuals at any given instant
in time is not knowable by us.

It is GOD, Who knows what is unknowable by us.

The 2PD-OMER Approach honors and glorifies GOD's omniscience.

This is why it continues to always work because the 2PD-OMER Approach
is inspired by the Holy Spirit and is in accordance with GOD's will.

Andrew B. Chung, MD/PhD explains why the "right amount" is an "omer" :

>>>> Well.. does this "right amount" vary from person to person?

In other words an athelete and someone who is terminally ill have to
eat the same amount?

>> But every adult has different requirements.

If they are known to GOD then why are you saying it is an omer? Is it
your interpretation, or what?

>>>> What

How come only you have have heard that omer is the pre-determined right
amount? Why have other followers of god not heard the same thing?

But you have stated that an "omer" is the "right amount" per 24 hours.

How did you learn that the "omer" was the right amount then? Who told
you this?

Yes he's right the ADA does look more like it's actually perpetuating
diabetes when you look at their dietary advice. I wrote much the same
about DUK and certain fuckwits tried to have my account nuked. I
suppose like any other commercial concern their first mandate is to
grow their customer base.

Well I wasn't testing at the time but I can certify that my lipids and
BP became so much worse so rapidly that I was accused of not following
the diet, and in retrospect I was probably running my BG up to 180 and
back several times a day, going purely by symptoms. I *did* try eating
from the diet sheet I was given my my current GP for one day, if I
could remember which day I'd post the numbers,

I just answered a guy, newly diagnosed, on the ADA Recently
Diagnosed forum whose friend had suggested homeopathy as a
means of treating diabetes.
http://tinyurl.com/4mpkf2
I wrote, among other comments, that homeopathy was a
ludicrous concept for treating diabetes.

It wasn't until after I sent off the post that it occurred
to me that the ADA dietary recommendations could be seen as
a homeopathic treatment method.

From Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeopathy
"Homeopathic practitioners contend that an ill person can be
treated using a substance that can produce, in a healthy
person, symptoms similar to those of the illness."

If that isn't a good description of using increased
carbohydrate consumption to treat diabetes, I don't know
what is.

Can't you count the ways in which that would be disputable? It
wouldn't settle the question at all. And since it's trivially easy for
an individual diabetic to eat an ADA recommended type of breakfast and
test the resulting BGs, I don't see the point.

Johnnie,

I have extensive meal logs going right back to my diagnosis, including
the 2-week period when I ate the UK equivalent of the ADA diet.

I'm sure this table will get munged - but the columns go, carb grams,
protein grams, fat grams, calories, MMOL up from baseline at 1 hour
and at 2 hours. Multiply by 18.2 to get US-style numbers, and remember
that these are hikes from the pre-meal numbers, which are shown in the
lower table. The two-hour ones also generally include a 30-min walk.
The worst numbers are when I was experimenting with low-GI foods, as
my dietician recommended.

sm 3bean salad slice bread salad leaves lots prawns 37 28 2
281 3.1 1.1
squash, chickpea & prawn thai curry, 3 tb rice 3.1 1.5

This was, thank goodness, 4 years ago. Today my fasting was 4.3; my
1-hour, after a lunch of asparagus tips dipped in bernaise sauce and a
bowl of strawberries, yoghurt, creme frais and chocolate sauce with
flaked almonds, was 6.6. Then, if a meal raised me more than 3mmol I
dumped it; today I'm primarily interested in never going above 7.8.

I tried to unmung the first section but failed although the
menu is quite clear. It looks so "healthy"; why, there was
hardly a spoonful of fat in the whole week:-)

This may help those across the pond see how bad those
numbers were:

11-Jun 12-Jun 13-Jun 14-Jun 15-Jun 16-Jun 17-Jun


Fasting 227 216 222 198 225 259
pre lunch 290 259 274 159 166 220 214
pre supper 195 193 227 157 232 146
bedtime 285 259 189 236 218 279 128
av 290 259 274 236 218 279 259

It also shows no effective improvement in those terrible
numbers over that week.

Without the weighing of the meals, your methodology will remain
unscientific.
