Quinoa?

can anyone tell me if quinoa is a good option 4 someone with type 2 diabetes? Also what about that glucerna line of products,the cereals,and the mini snack bars? I know its an expensive line,but if it helps,I might give it a try. Also chia seeds?

I used the glucerna drinks quite a bit actually, they are tasty and they keep my bg even. I haven't tried the other products because I don't like cereal or cereal bars. But I highly recommend the drinks. I heard of the chia seeds, I bought a bunch of them and put them in my salads but i haven't really noticed a big difference in my bg because of them. As far as quinoa, I'm not especially in love with the texture of it, so I'm not apt to use it, but if you like it by all means I suggest you eat it and then test test test. The only thing that is always a for sure here is that everyone is different with their response to foods. I have a real belief in extra virgin olive oil, my family has always sworn by it for everything, and on everything.
