okay and just to clear this up tuna IS meat, i dont why that person is saying it isnt!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

As long as the carbohydrates are complex in nature (the kind found in fruits and veggies) I don't see a problem worrying about diabetes, although you may have a genetic predisposition to the condition!. It is the sugar found in candybars, sodas, etc that one must worry about increased blood sugar levels!.

Of course, to be sure, check with your doctor or healthcare professional!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

don't worry about it right now i am the same age just act like a kid and don't eat totally veggy!. what you can do is tuna is not a meat and if you like it mix a little bit of mayo or Miracle whip in it and add celery and spread it on Ritz crackers or whole wheat crackers!. if not there are also other healthy if you need more ideas and you don't like fish i can give you other recipes toWww@FoodAQ@Com
