Hello Everyone my name is Jasmine and I wanted some advice from the Vegan family. My husband is a type 1 diabetic and we tried going Vegan for 2 weeks I loved it but my husband was feeling very different. We went to his doctors appointment and the doctor said it was a bad idea for him to go vegan because I was giving him too many carbs. The doctor recommend him to still eat some meats to get protein. I don’t believe he can’t go vegan I know there is a way. Also I was a new Vegan so I wasn’t sure of how to feed him based on his health. Can you guys just share some advice, recipes , or your own experience if you are vegan and living with a diabetic. Ever since the doctor said he could be Vegan we went back to how we were eating before and I honestly hate it I want to be Vegan but I find it hard to make plant based food for myself and something else for him. So please help guys! | Totally Vegan Buzz

Forks over knives website like the last comment. And maybe get a different doctor. I am an RN. I know first hand that most doctors don’t care or know much about nutrition. It’s not really part of their curriculum.
