Who told you to not eat beans if you are Diabetic? Beans have a lot of
fiber and many diabetics tolerate them well. In fact, there shouldn't
even be a "don't eat" list because each person reacts differently.

Test your blood glucose one hour and two hours after you eat any
starchy food and make your own "don't eat" list.

There is no such list. Technically we can eat whatever we want. It all
boils down to portion size and that might mean just one bite. Now some
people might find that certain foods spike them and they can't eat them at
all. One of those foods for some people is potatoes and yet I eat them with
no problem.

What you need to do is use your meter and test after eating. See which
foods work for you and in what amounts.

The foods I don't eat are ones I am allergic to, don't like or don't sit
well with my stomach. I have additional medical problems besides diabetes.

I eat beans almost daily. Sometimes more than once in a day.

Simple. Those that cause me to get high BG spikes. How do I
find which they are? I use this:

Where'd you find that little gem?

My List of foods not to eat?

1. Anything connected with spam, like Mario's Maplespam (TIC).
2. Anything that my meter tells me to avoid in the future.

For your own list, I highly recommend # 2 on my list.

Ross.

When people eat beans more frequently, they begin to digest them better.
I usually put a little pinch of ground ginger in our beans and it works
as well as Beano.
