Changes in sugar levels

I never thought of that ... thanks, but I have to avoid foods high in Folic Acids too, like: tuna, shellfish, nuts, beef, pork, some dried beans etc .. I use egg beaters and egg whites on sometimes and usually add cheese and fresh veggies. Olive oil I fell in love with I like the Mrs Dash products too, and I try to incorporate the natural sugar an acids that you find in fruits: lemons, oranges, mango's, raisins, cranberries, and limes when ever I can to add flavor to bland foods and to avoid using splinda when ever its possible. Do you guys know where I can find a list of foods with proteins but low in folic acids? Thats the problem I have been facing here, according to the sheet the doctor gave me dairy is good for helping bring down folic acid but its not great for the cholesterol or is it diabetes. I know its ok in small portions but I can't remember which it goes with ...? I have increased her dairy intake some and her sugar is staying between 115 and 125 but I do not know her cholesterol levels at this point, I do know before we started this new diet it was high and Cheerios and oatmeal have helped with that, which also seems to effect her sugar ... in a good way. lol Now see why I am so confused! Each one seems to effect the other and if the scales tilts a little to much this way or that then it all goes harry carry ...! at this point I am pretty comfortable with the sugar levels and her folic acids levels are dropping thank goodness ... but I want know about her cholesterol until Oct. By the way I delighted to see the recipes! thanks.
