Personally I’m more on the Dr. Bernstein side than the ADA.
Diabetes Mine: Dr. Bernstein vs. the ADA
I’m a big fan of Bernstein, and he has helped me tremedously. However, I find eating his way very difficult. On the other hand, I think the ADA recommends way too many carbohydrates.
Right now, I’m kinda of balanced between the two. I try to eat a Bernstein style breakfast, I feel better when I do. I use a food service for the rest of the day, and do fine by them.
If I get an overwhelming, I’ve got to eat urge (usually after a sleepless night), I pick a Bernstein style type of snack which usually gets me past it. It’s also MUCH easier on the blood sugar.
