I know this will seem sacriligeous to most of you, but my mom had some blood tests and they are showing elevated glucose, pre-diabetes level of things. She already eats very healthily, nothing processed, no red meat, lots of salads and grains, only whole grain pasta/bread/rice... so it seems that the onlu option for how is to go on a low-carb diet.

She says that the hardest for her would be to stop eating bread. I am wondering if there is any way to make something that can be close to a loafy bread, but without flour. Is there such a thing?

look up keto bread recipes. there are bean and nut flours to try. but im not sure they will deliver the same satisfaction of wheat bread. if she can have a little bread occasionally maybe it will be better to just cut back and ration it out rather than cutting herself off completely from something she enjoys.
