Type 2 Diabetes

Jan 11, 2023

 

 

Did you know 1 in 20 people are currently living with Type 2 Diabetes ?

That's approximately 1.3 million people. Statistics show the likelihood of Australians being diagnosed with Diabetes increases with age, with up to 20% of those over the age 75 now living with the condition.

Does that make you think about how you can alter your diet to minimise your risk later in life? After all, Diabetes can be a preventable chronic disease.

After being diagnosed with Diabetes, it's not uncommon for people to quickly exclude higher sources of carbohydrate such as a classic staple, bread. But what if you didn't have to go without?

The Herman Brot range of breads (Lower Carb and Complete Protein) may result in lower, more sustained blood glucose levels compared to traditional bread. This is because it boasts a higher fibre and protein content which may alleviate those spikes in blood glucose levels and therefore reduce the need for additional insulin.
