Information on WHEY Protein

Hello Everyone, my wife has me on the South Beach Diet to help with my type 2 diabetes.


I have read articles that state taking a whey protein can also help in beating or controlling type 2 diabetes.


My wife has told me that this is not allowed on this diet.


I believe and trust her for she is trying to help me beat this thing and is so caring in what she does, she plans my entire meals for the whole day.


I am just looking for opinions and possible direction due to the confusion of things that I am reading as well as to this diet.


Any response would be greatly appreciated


Thank you all in your help and in helping my wife and I both in the fight for a healthier life style.

The reason that whey protein isn't recommended on South Beach is because we rely on whole real foods for our nutritional needs.
