My husband, who is not diabetic, and a good portion of my friends have this issue. We all take some kind of Vitamin D supplement. I am of the age group who thought nothing of lathering up in baby oil and hitting the pool or beach and many are now paying the price.

I am allowed 30-45 grams of carbs for each meal. For breakfast I tend to gravitate towards Kashi cereals with a lower carb ratio and I always use unsweetened Almond Milk because it is lower in carbs than regular milk...and tasty!!
