    question on frozen yogurt

    18 carbs, and 6 of those are from sugar, the rest are from sugar alcohols which are not absorbed by the stomach, so they don't spike your blood sugar as bad. I am not diabetic but I followed south beach for about 2 years until I had to stop it due to a major Vitamin c deficiency. I got really used to paying attention to carbs. My husband is borderline type 2 diabetic, and our roomate is type 1 diabetic. He has no issues with the frozen yogurt with no added sugar

    Make sure you are getting enough Vitamin C. I've been on diets in the past which were low and no carb and I was such a fanatic that I cut out all of the foods that were natural sources of Vitamin C. Over time I developed a Vitamin deficiency which was affecting the muscles in my shins and also my gums were bleeding and receding. Milk inhibits the absorption of Vitamin C, so take your vitamin C at a time where you won't be drinking or eating milk based products. Also, you may check with your dentist to see if a mouthwash or other product would help protect your gums?
