Welcome to Diabetes Scene! I hope that you find the information on this site very helpful and informative. I have Diabetes myself and I know what it is like to live with it everyday.I wanted to see an internet site that was one massive diabetes information site. A place where you could come to find basically anything and everything that thereis to know about diabetes. Everything includes the basics of diabetes to the latest research developments.To tell you a little more about myself, I am 20 years old and have had diabetes for the past 5 years. I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Since I live in Canada this site is geared more towards Diabetes in Canada and to the metric system for managing diabetes. If you manage your diabetes using the imperial system you can still find the information here useful. To convert the metric blood sugar to the imperial way just multiply the blood sugar by 18.1. For food choices the Canadian CHO (Carbs) go as follows:

  • Starch 15g of CHO
  • Fruit / Veggie 10g of CHO
  • Milk 6g of CHO

    Thank you for visiting our site. Please come back everyweek as it will be updated on a weekly basis.

    Sincerely
