Whether a vegetarian diet is beneficial for diabetes control

Eating a vegetarian diet can reduce the incidence of diabetes, you can go to see a Chinese medicine doctor for your physical condition, and it is recommended that you go to Datong Diabetes Hospital to have a look.

Diabetic patients not only have abnormal glucose metabolism, but also often suffer from obesity, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia and other problems. Some diabetics simply understand a scientific and reasonable diet as eating as little as possible, and the more vegetarian the better. An unreasonable dietary structure can not only stabilize blood sugar, but also cause malnutrition and metabolic disorders, which can easily lead to an increase in blood sugar!

1. Light diet Vegetarian.

Light refers to less oil and less salt, but some friends will mistakenly interpret it as not eating or eating less meat. In order to improve the taste of food, a lot of oil, salt or other condiments are often used, but the vegetarian food made in this way is actually high in calories, which will increase blood sugar after ingestion, and excessive sodium intake will also make blood pressure higher.

2. Lipid-lowering and cholesterol-lowering diet Vegetarian.

Diabetics usually suffer from insulin resistance, fat metabolism disorders, and only control the intake of meat and cholesterol, and dyslipidemia may not be improved, even if they are completely vegetarian. Cholesterol is one of the important raw materials for the body's synthesis of hormones (including estrogen), and a female vegetarian diet will cause abnormal reproductive function, which will seriously affect fertility, and a male vegetarian diet will cause sperm disorders and cause infertility.

3. **Diet: Vegetarian.

Vegetarians are likely to get fatter the more they eat. Eating more vegetables, fruits and other fiber-rich foods in the diet does help, but vegetarians who only eat vegetables and fruits will form a strong sense of hunger due to the lack of fat and protein in the body, and will eat a larger amount of vegetables than a normal diet.

Vegetarians because of long-term vegetarian diet, high-quality protein intake is reduced, energy intake is insufficient, calcium, zinc, copper, vitamins B1, B2, dietary fiber and other nutrients intake is low, which often leads to poor physical fitness, vitamins, trace element deficiency, we do not recommend sugar friends to choose a vegan dietary pattern, sugar friends should combine their own eating habits, and then consult a professional nutritionist to develop a reasonable diet plan.

It is said that the straw mushroom originated in the Nanhua Temple in Shaoguan, Guangdong, and was artificially cultivated in China 300 years ago, and was spread to all countries in the world by overseas Chinese. Straw mushrooms have always had the reputation of "putting a piece and fragrant a pot", and were once used as a court tribute and were appreciated by the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Straw mushrooms are rich in high-quality protein, with a complete range of 8 kinds of amino acids necessary for the human body, and the content is high, which can improve human immunity, and has detoxification and anti-cancer effects, and can be used as a good nutritional supplement for vegetarians.

Straw mushrooms can slow down the absorption of sugars and are a good health supplement for diabetics. Straw mushrooms and jade bamboo, chicken stew to eat, can assist diabetes. Straw mushrooms can accelerate wound decoction, protect the liver, eliminate food and strengthen the stomach.

Straw mushrooms are especially suitable for people with weak constitution, vegetarian acorns, hepatitis patients, and diabetics. Straw mushrooms are cold, spleen and stomach deficiency, and diarrhea should not be eaten.

Myth: Meat and sugar are not good for diabetes, try to eat a vegetarian diet, vegetarian diet is good for blood sugar control.

Refutation of rumors:I. Concepts and Definitions

Glycemic index (GI).

The increase in the area under the glycemic response curve over a period of time (2 hours) compared to fasting after eating a target amount (usually 50 g) of a food containing carbohydrates is divided by the corresponding increase in the reference food (glucose) containing the same amount of available carbohydrates, expressed as a percentage.

GI is a physiological indicator that reflects the effect of food on blood sugar.

2. Result determination

When the glycemic index is below 55, the food is considered to beLow GIFood; When the glycemic index is between 55 and 70, the food is:

Medium GI

Food; When the glycemic index is above 70, the food is:

High GI

Food; After the high GI food enters the gastrointestinal tract, the digestion is fast, the absorption rate is high, the glucose release is fast, and the peak value of glucose is high after entering the blood;

Low GI foods stay in the gastrointestinal tract for a long time, have a low absorption rate, and release glucose slowly, with a low peak after glucose enters the bloodstream and a slow rate of decline.

3. Health significance

Most methods of evaluating food are chemical, and the glycemic index is a physiological parameter that has been tested on humans.

Therefore, using food glycemic index and reasonable meal arrangement is very beneficial for regulating and controlling human blood sugar.

At present, the glycemic index is mainly used to guide diabetic patients to choose food, properly control weight, control the incidence of chronic diseases, produce healthy food by food companies, and choose food rationally by consumers.

The role of GI in the dietary management of diabetic patients is increasingly widely recognized, and the concept of GI is mentioned in the standards related to dietary nutrition guidelines for diabetic patients issued by different ministries in recent years.

Among them, the "GB29922-2013 National Food Safety Standard General Principles for Formula Food for Special Medical Purposes" points out:Complete nutritional formula for diabetic patients should be a hypoglycemic index (GI) formula, GI 55.

Fourth, the detection method

In foreign countries, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is usually used to standardize the determination method of GI; In 2016, ISO reviewed the ISO standard for GI measurement and considered that the standard is still suitable for current GI measurement and continues to be used.

On June 20, 2019, the National Health Commission (NHC) released the "Food Glycemic Index Determination Method" drafted by the China CDC Institute of Nutrition and Health.

This standard is the first national standard for the detection of GI in China, and it standardizes the measurement procedures of GI.

Vegetarian diet can control blood sugar well, not diabetes, in fact, this is not the case, long-term vegetarian body will lack some nutrients, such as vitamin B, lack of these will have a certain impact on blood sugar, and fish, meat, eggs happen to have this nutrient, so only vegetarian is not necessarily a good thing,According to research, there are two groups of people who are more likely to get diabetes, one is overweight people, and the second group is people who are often vegetarians, and the proportion of these two groups of people with diabetes is relatively high.

Vegetarian diet mainly includes vegetables and fruits, and some vegetables and fruits also contain sugar, so whether you have diabetes has nothing to do with whether you eat vegetarian or notAnd diabetes is also a hereditary disease, and those who have a family history of diabetes in the family will have a greater chance of developing diabetes, so there are many causes of diabetes, and it is very unscientific to control blood sugar by eating a vegetarian diet.

People with diabetes are generally people who usually consume too much high-oil, high-salt, and high-sugar foods, so we don't want to skip fish, meat, and eggs in our daily lifeInstead, we should eat less high-oil, high-salt, high-sugar foods, and at the same time eat more vegetables, eat some fruits in moderation, we can eat some protein-rich meats like fish and chicken, so that our nutritional intake will be more balanced and healthier.

This argument is not scientific. If a person eats vegetarian for a long time, it is not good for the body, and there are many vegetarian foods that are also very high in sugar, such as rice porridge, sweet potatoes, and corn. This glycemic rise is particularly fast.

Actually, no, a vegetarian diet seems to be lighter than eating meat, but vegetables may contain more sugar than meat, and eating only a vegetarian diet may reduce body function, but the health is even worse.

Eating a vegetarian diet is not a good way to control blood sugar, nor can it prevent you from diabetes, because many vegetables also contain a lot of sugar, so this is a rumor

This sentence is not true, people who have diabetes should not only be controlled by diet, but also by taking medicine to control blood sugar.
