Not sure what to do now since your nutritionist said not to use artifical sweetner.  How long have you had your sfn and what do you take for your pain. some days the pain is just unbearable..any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.Thanks! |
Unfortunately, your doctor discounts what you put in your body as having anything to do with the results. Prediabetes is often the precursor or cause of PN. It is often caused by gluten sensitivity, which is worse than sugar for your condition. At the risk of sounding too redundant, Glenntaj is correct.
I recommend spending $15 on Dr. Davis' book at Amazon: Wheat Belly.
