  There needs to be a distinction between REFINED CARBS vs Fibrous carbs from non-starchy vegetables. For me once I took out all refined carbs and liquid refined carbs my blood glucose dropped, but bananas made my sugar shoot up exactly like when I had cake, So what I found so far is if I eat protein and fiber first through steamed non-starchy vegetables and eggs and fish and lean meats then have the carbs in the form of beans or lentils or root crops last my sugar goes gradually up and tapers but always within range. Fruits should always be last after fiber and protein. I once tried to have a really small portion of refined carbs after a solid meal of salad then pork and beef all lean cuts it had the same effect as my beans and lentils meal. Find what works for you, wear a  cgm, eat a sensible diet and remember there's REFINED CARBS vs FIBROUS CARBS vs FRUIT CARBS. stick with the fibrous ones.

  Long-term glucose in the bloodstream and glucose spikes overwork the Pancreas. Once this insulin producing gland gets continuously overworked, it could lead to pancreatitis and if that is unchecked,  ultimately Pancreatic cancer  sets in and there is absolutely no cure for that at this point in time.

  Eating too many carbs is what caused my insulin resistance, and ONLY by cutting them (not completely, but significantly) I managed to control my appetite and revert it.

  Carbohydrates can be converted into fat, but the process depends on how much carbohydrate you eat and your body's energy needs.

  I’ll try cutting some fat and eating more carbs now. I did reverse my prediabetes and fatty liver with a Whole Foods diet but it was a lot of saturated fat and less than 100 grams of carbohydrates. My weight is the same but much less abdominal fat and more muscle with the exercise I incorporated. I also did intermittent fasting. We need trials comparing these diets. Sustainability must also be compared.

  The Diabetic Code worked for me.  I had an A1c of 11.8 when I found out I was a T2D.  My A1c dropped to 5.3 over the next six month and I don't require any meds.

  I was 6ft 220lbs. I went on a high fat diet with eggs and fat meats after trying every diet in the book. I eat lots of nuts, fish meats and eggs. I eat baked and sweet potato’s and legumes. Whole Foods only. I fast 14 hrs a day and walk after meals. My fasting glucose dropped from around 100 to 82. After 1 year my weight dropped to 170lbs. My cholesterol total dropped to 145, triglycerides dropped to 55, and ldl dropped to 75. My liver numbers are all right where they need to be. I was diagnosed with fatty liver when my weight was up and taking Lipitor. The problem is not a normal intake of meats. It’s the sugar and processed foods. Body fat is the problem. If you can lose weight as a vegetarian then yes you can lower your A1C. The key is to lose weight with a sustainable diet otherwise you will got back to where you were. I’ve never met a diabetic that didn’t consume a ton of processed foods that had a ton of added sugar. Rarely are they at a healthy weight.
