Anyone with MC (LC) and pre-diabetic?

Trying to figure out how to get through Phase I diet changes and not mess up my sugar. Has anyone else had success balancing both?

I don't have blood sugar problems( although I have hand in the past, when I developed a chronic magnesium deficiency), but I can assure you that we have many members here who have diabetes, and they've been able to do it. Treating MC by making diet changes requires a low-carb diet, so except for needing to avoid easy to digest foods, you may need to select starches that are not as easy to digest, but that should be a minor problem. for tips on selecting foods with the best type of starch, the Microscopic Colitis Foundation published a newsletter back in 2019 that covers starch digestibility. For your convenience, here's a link for you can either read, or download a copy of the newsletter:

Yes, it can be tough! I found that focusing on whole foods, increasing protein, and healthy fats helped reduce sugar cravings. Also, be kind to yourself, it's a process!
