chocolate suitable for diabetics
Our
gourmet
chocolate bars and discs are all suitable for
diabetics in moderation (see below). However
the higher cocoa solid content of our dark chocolate
means there is less sugar and fat in the dark bars
and discs.
Diabetes UK, the largest organisation in the
UK working for people with diabetes, state that "It
is a myth that people with diabetes can't eat
chocolate." They also say that diabetic
products "offer no special benefit to people with
diabetes, and still affect blood glucose levels (and
are often higher in calories and fat than 'real'
chocolate)." "People with diabetes should eat
a normal healthy balanced diet, the same as anybody
else. This can include a biscuit or some normal
chocolate as long as it is done in moderation."
