Dreamfields Pasta a scam

[ditzeeblonde]

Scarey to think how many lives could be helped by giving them the right information!!

 

[Leanne1]

Absolutely. I'd like to see stuff taught in schools about diabetes management etc. It is everywhere now.
Ooops, I seem to have hijacked this thread. Sorry folks.

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Absolutely... its unbelieveable how wrong people are being taught!!

Bloods 1 hour after 9.2

 

[LVLLM]

is that a high peak Linz?

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Not particularily high... but higher than I would expect from a low carb meal. Be interesting to see how it compares... will have normal pasta for tea & test the same

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Bloods before 4.8
Bloods 1/2 hour after 10.2
Bloods 1 hour after 9.2
Bloods 1 1/2 hours after 6.3 (not bad!)

 

[LVLLM]

Lol aww the things you do for us. whats classed as high?

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Over 7 pre eating is classed as diabetic... I was in the 18's when diagnosed!! Have been reading that spikes can happen 5 hours later with Dreamfields but there is only that one article when googling it.

Will continue testing every half hour today (if I have enough strips!) not sure I fancy trying real pasta tho as I'm not concerned by these results will see how I feel later.... am full tho & not feeling my usual 3 o'clock need to eat which would normally happen with a high carb lunch. x

 

[Leanne1]

Hmmm, so back within acceptable levels.
Vicky, non-diabetics are usually between 4 and 7 depending on their diet.
Interesting results here though.

 

[LVLLM]

well thats good news Linz.I hope your test is conclusively good for dreamfields then ill order some LOL

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Bloods before 4.8
Bloods 1/2 hour after 10.2
Bloods 1 hour after 9.2
Bloods 1 1/2 hours after 6.3 (not bad!)
Bloods 2 hours after 5.3

Have to say I'm impressed with that... usually my bloods would still be increasing 2 hours after a high carb meal. Am quite tempted to try normal just to see now... what do you think?

 

[Leanne1]

Wow. Did you weigh it before cooking it? What did you have with it?
The same amount of ordinary pasta would be interesting but don't put your health at risk.

 

[LVLLM]

as leanne says dont put your health at risk. will it work with hubby LOL

 

[ditzeeblonde]

56 grams is the portion size, had it with 50g green pesto. Won't affect my health by trialing it me thinks... its all for science purposes!

 

[LVLLM]

Lol only if you want to Linz dont want you feeling poo. and gaining cos then it will be our fault

 

[ditzeeblonde]

If it means I don't have to throw away 3 boxes of expensive Dreamfields pasta then its worth it me thinks & I have the carbs spare

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Bloods before 4.8
Bloods 1/2 hour after 10.2
Bloods 1 hour after 9.2
Bloods 1 1/2 hours after 6.3 (not bad!)
Bloods 2 hours after 5.3
Bloods 2 1/2 hours after 4.9

 

[ClaireCat]

Oooh, perhaps I shouldnt have been so hastey in throwing my pasta in the bin the other day.

Really interested to see the difference, but as everyone says, dont risk your diet and health for the sake of us nosey people! lol!

 

[LVLLM]

Linz can you try it after the ryvita crispbreads as it might be the same?

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Erm... I'm kind of ok with trying it out thank girls... think the ice cream yesterday would have done more damage!! Besides it'll only put my 9g carbs over my daily allowance so figure I'll be ok & I'm intrigued. xx
