We are trying to improve our daughter’s control because her last hemoglobin A1c was over 9%. We switched her insulin to Lantus with NovoLog, and everything is going doing fine, but I’m really concentrating on her diet. I’m not finding a lot of information regarding the benefits of low glycemic index foods (whole wheat flour, flaxseeds, wheat germ). Am I wasting my time creating ways to incorporate these foods into her diet, or will they really benefit her?
