Nine misunderstandings in the daily life of diabetic patients, have you ever made these mistakes?

The main misunderstandings are:1Eat less sugar on it, 2

To eat less or no staple foods, 3You can eat sugar-free food with confidence, 4Drinking alcohol can lead to diabetes, 5

Eating smaller, more frequent meals is not conducive to blood sugar control,6Vegetarian only, no meat, 7Fat people get diabetes, 8

When blood sugar is lowered, stop taking the drug at will, 9Diabetes is always hereditary. These 9 misconceptions are relatively common.

I haven't made these mistakes, including: 1. Pay attention to fasting blood sugar and not pay attention to postprandial blood sugar. 2. Pay attention to blood sugar and not glycosylated hemoglobin.

3. Don't eat sweets. 4. Don't eat staple foods. The diabetic diet is first and foremost a balanced diet with a certain ratio of nutrients.

5. Don't eat meat. 6. Fine grains have high sugar content, and coarse grains have low sugar content. 7. The sugar content of nuts is very low, so it doesn't matter if you eat them.

8. Fruits have high sugar content. 9. Diabetes can be smoking. Smoking can lead to diabetic foot.

Didn't commit it. Myth 1: Eating too many sweets can lead to type 2 diabetes. 2. Diabetes means that insulin must be used eventually.

3. It's not a big deal to have diabetes. 4. He has diabetes, and he has been fine for so many years, and I have nothing if I have it. 5. Traditional Chinese medicine and health care products can ** diabetes.

6. Since diabetes can't be **, I don't need to exercise. 7. If you have diabetes, you can't eat sweets. 8. If you use too much insulin, you will gain weight.

9. Having diabetes means that you will have insomnia or amputation in the future.

Yes, often committed. Diabetics cannot eat sweets and staple foods, but it is difficult to control them in daily life.

Yes. Among the nine diabetes misconceptions, I mistakenly believe that eating too many high-sugar foods can lead to diabetes. But in fact, the causes of diabetes are very complex, and it is the result of the interaction of a variety of internal and external factors.

I haven't made any of these mistakes, and I'm not diabetic, I usually pay a lot of attention to eating regularly, and I exercise regularly and quantitatively, and my body is very good.

Top 10 Misconceptions About Diabetic Diet

Myth 1: There are always benefits to eating more grains.

Whole grains and vegetables are rich in dietary fiber, which can delay the absorption of blood sugar, increase intestinal peristalsis, maintain the balance of intestinal flora, and help prevent diarrhea and constipation. It is not enough to eat whole grains, it is also necessary to have abundant green leafy vegetables, and eating 250 300 grams of green vegetables a day is beneficial for the prevention and treatment of blood sugar elevation.

Myth 2: It's okay to eat more vegetarian oil.

Most of the meat oil we eat is bad fatty acids - saturated fatty acids, which should be eaten less. Is it possible to eat more vegetarian oil? No, it doesn't.

25 grams of vegetable oil a day, almost 2 tablespoons. It is recommended that everyone eat more monounsaturated fatty acids, such as olive oil, tea oil, rapeseed oil, peanut oil, etc., among which olive oil is the best. If you can't afford it financially, you can take tea oil, olive oil and canola oil 1:

1:1 is better than eating rapeseed oil alone.

Myth 3: You can eat more protein.

The total amount of protein is not the more the better, but the more refined the better. The recommended daily protein intake is 15% 20% of the total calories, about 1 gram per kilogram of body weight, and a person who weighs 50 70 kilograms is 50 70 grams of protein, which is equivalent to 2 3 taels of raw chicken, duck and fish. You should also eat more dairy products and soy products every day, but people with diabetic nephropathy and high uric acid should limit the intake of soy products.

Skim or low-fat milk should be drunk for milk, not whole milk. You can drink a glass of milk a day, and you can also eat more fresh fish.

For people with diabetic nephropathy, protein intake should be severely restricted. If there is already protein in the urine, especially in the urinalysis, then the daily protein intake must be strictly controlled.

Myth 4: Fruits are sweet and should not be eaten.

Can you eat fruits?

If your fasting blood sugar is less than 7 millimoles and your blood sugar is less than 10 millimol liters 2 hours after a meal, you can eat fruit between meals. Be careful to eat fruits with a low glycemic index, such as grapes, pears, etc. Fruits with a high glycemic index include lychee, watermelon, banana, etc.

Myth 5: Controlling staple foods is the same as eating**.

Some people believe that controlling staple foods is diet**, and eating less meals is better for disease control. This view is incorrect. The daily intake of carbohydrates should be 50% to 60% of the total calories, and eating less is not better.

However, some people are particularly sensitive to carbohydrates, and their blood sugar is high when they eat half a bowl, so it is recommended to eat carbohydrates in batches. Some patients skip meals every day, only drink milk, and drink five bottles of milk a day, and as a result, blood sugar is still very high, which is an energy imbalance.

In addition, if we eat less carbohydrates, our body will mobilize the fat and protein stored in the body to participate in the daily metabolism, so the person who eats very little is easy to lose weight because he does not have enough energy. The more the body mobilizes its own fat and protein, the more ketones are produced, which can easily lead to ketoacidosis, so carbohydrates should not be too few.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease caused by genetic factors, environmental factors and lifestyle habits. The main cause is a syndrome in which the body's pancreas does not produce insulin normally (insulin deficiency) or the body does not use insulin normally (insulin resistance), resulting in higher than normal blood sugar.

In recent years, with the improvement of living standards, the prevalence of diabetic patients is gradually increasing, but many diabetic patients still have some misunderstandings at the level of diabetes, which endangers the proper treatment of diabetic patients.

Diabetics need to stay hungryThis kind of perception is wrong.

Staying hungry can deplete your chemicals, cause weight loss, and cause metabolic disorders. If it takes too long, it will cause nutritional imbalance, which is not conducive to the manipulation of diabetic patients, but will aggravate the condition.

Proposed:Patients should maintain their weight and consume meals that are consistent with their respective weight standards and stress intensity during the activity.

Diabetics need to eat more meat dishes and less meatThis kind of perception is wrong.

The decrease in the intake of meat products will inevitably make the human body not have enough protein, which is easy to cause the patient's immunity to be reduced and prone to susceptibility. Lack of meat recipes, no satiety of body fat, patients are very prone to starvation, so it is not easy to stick to the diet and treatment.

Proposed:The diet of diabetic patients is first of all a reasonable diet, and a certain proportion of various nutrients needs to be maintained. Daily intake of eggs, meat, fish, legumes and food products 100 150 g.

It is true that such and such food is a hypoglycemic foodThis kind of perception is wrong.

First of all, almost any food contains calorific value, some contain sugars and carbohydrates, some contain body fat, and some contain protein.

As long as it contains calorific value, it will increase blood sugar after ingestion into the body, but there are some foods with low power density, or dietary fiber, and the rate of blood sugar rise is unpleasant and the amplitude is not large, but the overall development trend must be to make blood sugar rise, not to decrease.

It is not easy to have a certain kind of natural food that can lower blood sugar, unless it contains hypoglycemic drugs, but it is definitely not allowed.

Proposed:Foods with low power density or dietary fiber can be moderately used, which is advantageous for slowing down blood sugar digestion and absorption and reducing blood sugar fluctuations.

Sugar-free foods can be eaten as much as you likeThis kind of perception is wrong.

Sugar-free food can deal with the habit of diabetic patients who love sweet taste, and it is not suitable for too much, and excessive consumption will harm blood sugar due to the total calorie exceeding the standard.

Proposed:The additives of sugar-free food are sugar alcohols, which are less harmful to blood sugar, but contain more sugars and carbohydrates.

I know that the misunderstanding that needs to be paid attention to is that the diet is too light, replacing meals with staple foods, there is no meat in the diet, and vegetarianism is the mainstay, which is actually wrong, not only has no way to ** diabetes, but also may cause other diseases.

You can't skip vegetables, you can't skip fruits, you can't skip staple foods, you can't skip any sugary foods, which will affect the body, and carbohydrates must be consumed.

They refer to not eating supper, eating less sweet food, eating less fried things, not drinking alcohol, and not eating too much at one time, which are all dietary misunderstandings.

A scientific diet** should be based on maintaining food balance, adequately limiting the total calories in the diet, and eating basic foods according to normal energy standards. If you are on a diet or eat less, you are prone to hypoglycemia and hunger ketosis, which can also cause significant fluctuations in blood sugar, which is not conducive to blood sugar control. Because chronic starvation and caloric deprivation can lead to proper consumption of the body, which not only does not reduce weight and resistance, but also worsens diabetes.

Therefore, diabetics should not consume less than 150 grams of basic foods per day, otherwise they are prone to ketosis.

People with diabetes, like all ordinary people, should eat a varied, balanced diet to meet their daily nutritional needs. Grains, vegetables, fruits, meat, fish, poultry, eggs, legumes and dairy products can be eaten. There is no need for myths or deliberate avoidance of a certain food.

Even if it's a dessert snack, eating it in moderation isn't a big deal. Many patients believe that less basic food is better. They even control basic foods to only half or two meals for one or two meals in a row, which will lead to two consequences:

One is that due to insufficient food intake, the total calories cannot meet the needs of the body's metabolism, resulting in excessive breakdown of fat and protein, weight loss, malnutrition, and even starvation leading to ketosis.

First of all, cereals are also cereals and contain carbohydrates. If left unrestricted, total caloric intake will exceed the norm, which is not conducive to controlling glucose in the blood. Coastal grains are rich in dietary fiber, which has an auxiliary hypoglycemic effect.

However, if swallowed in excess, it may increase gastrointestinal weight and affect micronutrient absorption. In another case, people with diabetes focus on the control of basic foods and do not limit other foods such as oil, snacks, meat, and eggs. They even hope to use the intake of these foods to fill the energy deficit caused by the strict restriction of basic foods.

They eat large amounts of food every day, resulting in a total energy intake that is out of control. Therefore, diabetic patients need the right diet structure and nutritional supplementation. In this case, it is necessary to calculate the necessary dietary structure according to the individual situation, complete the chromium-containing linear oil spore powder in order to improve insulin metabolism, increase the activity of pancreatic islet cells, reduce insulin resistance and insulin action.

The troubles of diabetics:

I didn't dare to eat it, and I didn't dare to eat it because I was afraid that my blood sugar would rise.

Some people don't eat meat for a long time and only eat vegetarian diets.

Some people think that eating fruits does not gain weight, so they eat a lot of fruits.

There are also those who believe that eating pumpkin **, eating pumpkin.

For diabetic patients, there are three common misunderstandings.

Diabetics can eat meat, and need to eat meat.

Protein is the source of life, and it is needed for the normal functioning of the body, and people who have not eaten meat for a long time are also more likely to age.

It is important to note that do not eat fatty meats, pork belly, smoked, cured or barbecued meats, and do not overeat meat to avoid excessive fat and cholesterol intake.

The diet should be balanced, you can eat fish, shrimp, shellfish and other seafood, and eat lean beef, mutton, and mutton. Protein that meets the body's metabolic and functional needs of various organs.

You can eat fruits, but you have to choose the right ones.

Different foods have different glycemic index (GI values). It is necessary to choose fruits with low GI values. For example, fresh cherries 22, plums 24, grapefruit 25, dried apricots 31, peaches 28, apples 36, pears 36, dates 42, citrus 43, grapes 43, kiwi 52, choose these fruits with relatively low GI values.

Pineapple 66, cantaloupe 70, watermelon 72, GI value is higher, diabetic patients should eat less.

Pumpkin has a GI value of about 75, which is a high GI food, so try to eat as little as possible.

The GI value of sweet potato, purple sweet potato and pumpkin was relatively high.

The staple food can be coarse and fine, and coarse grains can be appropriately increased, such as barley, with a GI value of 25; rice bran, GI 19; Rye 34, wheat 41, oatmeal rice 42, black rice porridge 42, cornmeal porridge 50, corn grits porridge 51, etc., these GI values are relatively low.

Rhizomes, you can eat some taro appropriately, with a GI value of 48.

Don't eat rice porridge, polished rice, bread, fritters, etc., these foods have a high GI value and are easy to raise blood sugar.

Diabetics need to pay attention to their diet:

Snacks tend to have a high GI value, are high in calories, and are prone to glycemic increases. A large number of studies have shown that smoking and drinking alcohol have a greater impact on diabetes and are not conducive to blood sugar control.

Foods that have been deeply processed tend to have a higher glycemic index, which can easily lead to a rise in blood sugar after consumption. The dietary fiber content in coarse grains is high, and dietary fiber can effectively slow down the absorption rate of sugar, which is conducive to better blood sugar control.

Sugar, honey, candy, sugary pastries and sugary beverages are strictly restricted, which are high in calories, high in content, and easily absorbed, prompting a rapid rise in blood sugar. Occasionally, you can satisfy your cravings with sugar-free sweets.

Choose foods that have carbohydrate content on the package label or a "low sugar" label. The higher the carbohydrate, the higher the general GI value.
