High Carb diet and loosing weight
I don't have blood sugar spikes at all, no, i cant follow a diabetic diet, that would make me quite ill. I guess its hard understand a disorder no one has ever heard of. Was hoping someone else with it might be on here to offer some advice.

High Carb diet and loosing weight
I need carbs in general, simple actually are better. When you have an attack, one of the first things they do is put you on a glucose drip. The raise in sugar helps neutralize the porphyrians causing the attack. I know its weird and rare. I am always slightly anemic, part of the condition, and my blood sugar is always low. I tend to eat a lot of pasta and rice, when I don't I feel sick. Yeah, I'm playing with it. Right now working on reducing the amount I eat and cutting out soda little at a time.

High Carb diet and loosing weight
Its really weird, but I have to have carbs in my diet or I become very sick due to a medical condition (a type of porphyria). So what is the best carbs for loosing weight? How do you balance? This is not something my doctor can really help with. He says its trial and error for everyone. It is definitely something that makes it hard to diet.
