Pasta & diabetes

Diabetics: Have any of you tried Dreamfields pasta and have you noticed an affect on your blood sugar? I have gestational diabetes and I have been avoiding pasta but I was reading about this brand and it sounds like it might be do-able.

    Dreamfields is a scam. It spikes your blood sugar just like regular pasta.

    I have never tried that brand of pasta. I do still eat pasta, I just am very careful of portion control and I eat pasta with fiber in it. The pasta is a bit tougher then the normal pasta but it does help me. I also add flax seed to my sauce for some extra fiber. I have type 2 diabetes but it seems to be fairly well under control especially since I started my weight loss.
