While on a diabetic diet, pasta can still be a healthy food choice if it is whole grain and portioned appropriately. Add protein and salad to a modest serving of whole grain pasta with health advice from a certified diabetes educator in this helpful video on nutrition.

@OvoPiano well said,..most critics never got this important point.

@ovopiano: I agree that man is an omnivore, probably a better term would be an “opportunivore”. But, the consumption of lots of carbs for the most part, probably coincided with the begining of agriculture (8-9 thousand years ago). I think that before that man survived MAINLY on veggies, fruits, nuts and whatever man could run down and stab to death. Speaking for myself and lots of people I have conversed with, low carb is really a healthy thing, lower BS, BP, hunger, weight, better mood.

Man evolved on anything he could find.. Nut shells have been found in every paleolithic site analyzed, leaves and roots are consumed by the majority of hunter-gatherers populations, even the Inuits do a great effort to search for leaves and cloud berries (and they have never been healthy to begin with) The researcher Wranghammer even shows that cooking existed thousands of years before than we thought and we evolved eating cooked tubers. That’s a sloppy territory. Humans are omnivorous.

there are lot of people who never adapt to keto.
Lyle McDonald is the major expert on ketosis and ketogenic diets and he too acknowledges that lot of people will never adapt to keto and they will keep feeing terrible and without energy on keto. You can’t generalize. As I said, if keto was the solution to diabetes, every diabetic would have normal BG’s now and feeling good. Reality is far more complex than exaggerated theories on paper.

@ovopiano: fine, if you want to up your carbs and you do not have any bad effects, go for it. There is no need to up your carbs, none. I am active, I eat about 5-10 grams of carbs a day and do fine. Full keto adaption CAN take up to 3 months, that kinda sucks.

@ovopiano: If you are eating low carb and your BS rises, you are probably eating too much protein. If you have a carbohydrate metabolism disorder and manage to keep your BS normal, you still may have abnormal levels of insulin, this is not a good thing. Also, lots of people with ttdm, following the standard reccomended diet still have to take toxic drugs because the diet does not work. Man evolved and thrived on meat and veggies. No biological requirement to eat carbs…ZERO!

I do eat pasta, whole wheat (I measure with a meter and whole wheat doesn’t spike me as white) and as long as the portion is small, there are proteins, fats and veggies in the plate as well, it’s a meal that doesn’t play havoc with my BGs. So this video is spot on, expecially if a steak and veggies, ketogenic, very low carb and no starches doesn’t work for you or stopped working after few months, as in my case.

Dr. Atkins also never said to keep eating a low carb forever, you’re supposed to climb a carbohydrates ladder until you find the amount of carb your body tolerates and needs. For many people that amount is around 150 grams and more if they’re into sport or athletically active. The induction never worked for me. What works for me is a diet with around 30% to 40% carbs with more carbs after a workout. Very lot fat diets like 10% to 20% are fat-deficient and revolting, so I agree there.

@ovopiano: Dr Atkins treated nearly 100K people, the majority had great health improvements. Of course no one diet is going to work for everyone, the low fat scam is just making people hungrier and fatter, adding many sick diabetics to the hospital roles. Man evolved mainly eating animal and vegetables, a diet humans are well adapted too. If you change your diet, It will take time to adapt, lots of people quite low carb when their body is in flux, adapting to using fat for energy, no willpower.

@ovopiano: I did not say we were cats. The analogy between insulin resistance in cats and humans is correct. If you are eating low carb the need for insulin is a lot less, you will have plenty for your biological needs. Gluconeogenesis will easily supply all of the glucose your brain needs, diabetics are very good are converting protein to glucose. Man can easily survive without eating any carbs. Ketones will fuel the body great, it takes some time to adapt though.

Also we’re not cats, cats are carnivorous and their brains doesn’t need the amount of glucose we need nor their salive contains ptyalin to digest starches and their blood sugar runs a lot lowers than us. Even though our brains can adapt to burning some ketone bodies, the brain will never use 100% ketone bodies and will still need at least a 40% of direct glucose, which is why proteins will always be used. This diet is well known by diabetics and believe me it’s not a panacea.
July 23rd, 2010 at 10:36 am
I’m sorry but the diet you propose failed a lot of people. It’s the high fat Homo Optimus diet. But proteins are too low in that diet and if you raise them you get glucogenesis spikes. Most people never adapt to getting their energy from the fat, they feel sluggish and tired even after months and the few proteins they get is converted to sugar, making them protein deficient. Check the website diabetesdaily and in the forum you’ll find lot of diabetics who didn’t have success with low-carb
July 23rd, 2010 at 10:58 am
@ovepiano: If you are eating a low carb diet and your blood sugar runs high, you are probably doing something wrong. The best low carb diets restrict CARBS AND PROTEIN (to limit gluconeogenisis). And it is funny you mention insulin resistance. You do know that cats are naturally insulin resistant, right? In cats the insulin resistance is benign, as long as cats don’t eat carbs. It is the same with humans. Just because you have normal blood sugar does not mean your insulin levels are ok.

nonsense, lot of people have tried low carb diets with not results if not an increase in glycemia itself. If you check a website called bloodsugar101 written by an expert on diabetes, you’ll see that even she, a strong low-carb promoter, is posting scientific proof that low-carb diets stop working after half year or one year, cell becomes more resistant because of the fat, the liver dumps blood sugar all the times, proteins are converted into carbs… diabetes it’s not so simple you dreamer

In my opinion MOST of the diet recommendations for type 2 diabetics are insane. The majority of diet recommendations are for between 40-55% of the calories from CARBS. To me, that is similar to a doctor recommending to someone with badly arthritic knees, train for a marathon. I think that if a doctor recommends that type of diet, they must buy into government propoganda or want to sell a lot of diabetes medication. On a low carb diet you can have normal blood sugar in weeks if not days.
