I recently had an appointment with my dietician to discuss low carb meals that can me to better control my blood sugar levels. You see I’ve been suffering from Reactive Hypoglycemia for the past 6 months and it’s really impacted on my health. I didn’t know what was making me so unwell each day and spent half the year resting and feeling sick.
We now know that my body cannot tolerate carbs any longer and as a result, I have been experimenting and trying out new and different low carb meals. Today I am sharing this fantastic low carb Garlic chicken dish with meatballs and spiralized Zoodles.
