Ride Nutrition



Hi Vickie,
I also am interested in finding out more about nutrition for diabetics. My 
partner is a diabetic, he also rides and crews for me, and we have huge 
problems addressing the balance of insulin and food in relation to energy 
expended. He is newly diagnosed, (3 months) and we are both learning about 
dietary management. I am worried he may be out riding or crewing and go low 
(hypo), and be unable to get the proper food etc. Because of this I try to 
plan ahead and pack plenty of food, plus his insulin, but basically it gets 
pretty difficult to find stuff he's allowed that packs well and tastes good! 
Anyone else out there have any ideas on lowfat no sugar foods? He's not 
allowed more than a handful of fruit a day, and needs lots of carbohydrates. 
The hardest thing for him is giving up beer for the low alcohol stuff!!!
TIA,
Carol and the 
Gang.
