To control your diabetes in relation to eat or not eat it? More and more medical studies have shown negative results. Type 2 diabetes may be the long-term combined effects of unhealthy lifestyles and habits of the results, need to focus on diet management and diet management will be able to cover not eat or not eat. It can be said, diet management and treatment of diabetes in the life of the greatest challenges faced is the basic overall control of diabetes. Because dietary management is difficult to grasp, has long been popular in too many patients and should avoid the so-called, resulting in many errors. To make food for the patients with diabetes not to burden, it is necessary to keep the spread of newer knowledge of nutrition in patients.

GI

Glycemic index of food into the body is formed after the rise in blood glucose concentrations the rate and extent. Select the correct application of glycemic index foods can help people with diabetes diet easier reasonable arrangements to effectively control blood sugar.

High glycemic index foods, including refined rice processing out of fine white bread, pasta, white rice, refined pastries, mashed potatoes and so on. Glycemic index of 70 or more generally food, digestion and absorption quickly, can cause rapid increase in postprandial blood glucose.

Low glycemic index foods include coarse grains, beans, milk, vegetables, mushrooms, fruit, sugar points. Low glycemic index food with slow absorption of sugar, together with soluble viscous fiber, increasing the viscosity of intestinal contents, reduces the interaction between starch and digestive enzymes in the digestive tract long residence time, absorption rate, postprandial blood glucose is conducive to the stable.

GL

Unit of glycemic load that can be used in foods carbohydrate amount and glycemic index value of the product. The quantity and quality of carbohydrate intake together, can the actual intake of food or the overall dietary pattern of the quantitative determination of glucose effects and improve the glycemic index value.

The background of the concept generated is high or low glycemic index foods and postprandial blood glucose was not always correspond to the relationship between the key depends on the content of sugar in food and food intake. From the food weight, carbohydrate content and the total volume of food, water and other factors, high and low glycemic index based solely on food choices of food, is unscientific.

To eat carrots, watermelon glycemic index between 71 and 72, respectively, considered solely from the glycemic index value, a high glycemic index foods, diabetics should avoid certain food. However, the water content of watermelon, carrots contain high fiber, glycemic load per 100 g of food were 5.5 and 3.9, the daily consumption does not cause significant changes in blood sugar.

The glycemic index eating soda crackers is 72, because high-carbohydrate, 100 dozen cookies Akzo 54.86 glycemic load. If the misconception that it does not contain sugar to release the food, think again.

Food Matching

Reasonable food with glycemic index and can reduce the postprandial blood glucose.

Riga, rice, white rice, oats glycemic index is 80, the glycemic index of oat rice is 56, the glycemic index than white rice by 30%, as oat rice is rich in dietary fiber and B-glucomannan, can reduce intestinal absorption of glucose.

Tremella Riga soups lotus 30 grams, 20 grams of red dates, longan meat 10 grams, boiled soup after the glycemic index of 67, the same ingredients in jelly 5 grams based on the increase, after the soup boiled glycemic index is 42, than that without jelly 37% lower glycemic index because the jelly containing the viscous indigestible polysaccharides, can delay the body of the soup in the absorption of carbohydrates.

Catering Management goal is not only to provide adequate and balanced nutrition to help patients control blood sugar, but also enable patients to maintain ideal body weight, and to help avoid or delay complications and improve quality of life. It is understood that diabetes medical nutrition therapy as patients with diabetes in developed countries has been an important part of the diet plan, but also gave birth to the medical nutrition formula. Proposed addition to regular diabetes check in endocrine clinic outside the dispensary, out-patient consultation should be catering to the nutritional management program.
