I've learned some important stuff since being diagnosed as Type II two years ago:

1. Many of the foods that raise the good cholesterol levels also raise my blood glucose level.

2. My doctor has moderated his views on bread. First, it was no bread whatsoever, now whole wheat is ok. I opt for the 21 grain bread sold at Sprouts.

3. If one thing doesn't get me, another will. Accordingly, I monitor what I eat, exercise regularly, and enjoy each day as much as I can.

4. I also resolve not to drink a bottle (plus) of wine the day before I go in for my blood work. I did that two months ago, and came up anemic...and I've never been anemic. lol Was the wine good? Absolutely!

Like what foods? I don't believe this is generally the case.
