What foods can't diabetes eat? How should diabetics recuperate?

Diabetes is a common disease with abnormal blood glucose metabolism in life, which will bring many adverse effects to life. It needs timely care, so what foods can't diabetes eat? How should diabetics recuperate? There are many foods that diabetics can't eat, and they can be adjusted in many ways in their lives. Let's take a look at the specific content together.

1, contraindication of diabetes in winter

Avoid boredom

That is, a low-fat diet with less oil. Don't eat greasy food, especially food containing animal fat, such as fried food and food made of animal fat. Because these foods contain a lot of saturated fatty acids, it can increase your blood lipid and blood viscosity, and promote or aggravate arteriosclerosis; Moreover, the heat generated by fat is more than 1 times that of sugar and protein, which will directly cause obesity, produce insulin resistance and indirectly affect blood sugar.

② Avoid spicy food.

Try not to eat spicy food, such as spicy pepper, pepper, mustard and so on. These foods will aggravate the symptoms of "three more and one less" diabetic friends, and also help to make a fire, thus violating the pathogenesis and treatment of "yin deficiency and dryness-heat" diabetes mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine, which is not good for diabetes rehabilitation.

③ Avoid sweetness.

Do not eat pure sugar-white sugar, brown sugar, rock sugar, maltose (maltose, syrup), honey, glucose and its products, as well as dried fruits, preserved fruits and other foods with high glycemic index. These are monosaccharides and disaccharides, which will make the blood sugar of diabetic patients rise rapidly after eating. In addition, there are some foods that are not too sweet to eat, but often cause a significant increase in postprandial blood sugar, such as potatoes (especially French fries), taro, sweet potato (sweet potato, sweet potato), lotus root and so on. Pay attention to these root foods (except onions), and the amount of staple food should be reduced accordingly.

④ Avoid being too salty.

A low-salt diet. When cooking, you should use less salt, generally not more than 6 grams per day/kloc-0, and do not eat pickled vegetables. Because eating too salty will not only increase blood volume, but also increase blood pressure, increase the burden on kidneys, fundus and heart, and promote or aggravate vascular complications. It can also activate and promote the activity of glucolytic enzymes in the small intestine, accelerate the absorption of sugar, and lead to the increase of postprandial blood sugar.

⑤ Avoid drinking.

Generally speaking, diabetic friends are not suitable for drinking, especially excessive drinking. This is because alcohol contains calories, and excessive drinking is not conducive to controlling the total calories in the diet, which is easy to cause blood sugar fluctuations and worry about weight gain. Excessive drinking will also inhibit the decomposition of liver glycogen, while alcohol can stimulate insulin secretion and enhance the effect of insulin. In addition, you may reduce your diet because of drinking alcohol, so it is easy to cause hypoglycemia and cover up its symptoms.

In addition, drinking alcohol is not conducive to controlling blood lipids, and it is also easy to cause dyslipidemia, fatty liver and even cirrhosis, accelerating the occurrence and development of hypertension and arteriosclerosis. In addition, long-term drinking may also lead to intestinal nutrient absorption disorders, leading to the lack of corresponding nutrients and vitamins.

The above are the dietary taboos of winter diabetic patients introduced by Bian Xiao. I don't know if you understand. So what suggestions do diabetics have for winter diet?

2, winter diabetes diet aftercare

1, increase the dietary fiber content, eat more vegetables, wheat bran, beans and whole grains, and pay attention to supplementing vitamins and inorganic salts (i.e. minerals).

2. Drink about 2000 ml of water every day to keep the urinary tract clean and reduce the chance of urinary system infection.

3, you can eat more mutton, ginger soup and other foods that can keep out the cold in winter to avoid the body from being stimulated by cold.

You can also eat clam meat bitter melon soup, yam lotus seed soup, yam medlar steamed chicken and so on.

4. Some vegetables are also beneficial to diabetics, such as spinach, which can promote insulin secretion;

Mushrooms, a high-protein and low-fat food, also have the functions of lowering blood sugar and blood fat;

Tomatoes are low in sugar content and also have the effect of preventing cancer. These vegetables are suitable for diabetics to eat regularly.

5, maintain a certain amount of exercise, improve local blood circulation, promote metabolism, and prevent blood sugar from rising.

6. Monitor blood sugar at any time and insist on taking hypoglycemic drugs under the guidance of a doctor to achieve the purpose of control.

3. How to effectively reduce blood sugar

1 Add activities

Patients with type 2 diabetes usually control their blood sugar better by strengthening exercise. Even simple exercise, such as walking for 20 minutes every day, can effectively improve insulin resistance and lose weight as long as it persists. Studies have confirmed that after reasonable exercise, diabetic patients can indeed reduce the dosage of hypoglycemic drugs, or even get rid of drug treatment completely.

2. "Coarse" grain should not be carefully cultivated.

It is very important to control the fineness of grain grinding. Taking bread as an example, the GI of white bread is 70, but that of bread mixed with 75%~80% barley grains is 34. It is suggested that coarse grains should be used instead of flour and rice.

3. Use a small plate.

Choosing small tableware can reduce food intake, reduce appetite and calorie intake, and maintain a reasonable weight.

Step 4 change breakfast to "thick"

Because porridge is heated for a long time, starch is easily converted into dextrin and then easily decomposed into glucose. At the same time, porridge is in a semi-liquid state, and the emptying time of the stomach after eating is relatively short, so eating porridge is easier to raise postprandial blood sugar than eating staple food. Therefore, it is best not to just drink porridge for breakfast, but to eat "thick" food and stick to the staple food.

5, the amount of food must be calculated.

Obese people can reduce the incidence of diabetes by 70% by losing 5% weight. Calculate your daily intake and see how much you should eat less.

6. increase the intake of vitamin C.

Increasing the content of antioxidants such as vitamin C in diet can prevent the destruction of arterial wall, reduce the occurrence of plaque accumulation and heart disease, and thus effectively reduce the occurrence of diabetic complications. Increasing the proportion of fruits and vegetables in the diet can provide the best source of antioxidants.

7. Increase the intake of sugar-free liquid.

Dehydration can also lead to an increase in blood sugar, and people should consume about 2 ~ 3 liters of sugar-free liquid every day. When blood sugar rises, drinking water can not only dilute blood sugar but also avoid eating too much food. Patients with heart disease or renal complications need to limit their fluid intake appropriately. Consult a doctor or dietitian for details.

8. Drink green tea every day

Compared with other drinks, green tea has higher polyphenol content because it has not been fermented. Polyphenols have strong antioxidant properties and hypoglycemic effects, and they can also control the release of blood sugar.

9. Don't touch junk food.

If you often go to McDonald's and KFC, diabetes will also patronize you. Scientists in Minnesota conducted a follow-up survey of 3000 people aged 18-30 for a period of 15 years. The results show that people who eat junk food twice a week not only gain about 4.5 kilograms, but also triple their insulin resistance, which is a high risk factor for diabetes. Even if your weight is normal, trans fats and refined carbohydrates in junk food will increase the risk of diabetes.

10, bring lunch to work

Avoid eating lunch in restaurants or fast food restaurants, because it can easily make people lose control of their appetite. The food in fast food restaurants is very greasy, with high calorie and fat content. The study found that there is a correlation between frequent eating out and weight gain. In the process of preparing your own lunch, you will carefully control the raw materials and weight of the ingredients. If you find it a little troublesome to prepare your own lunch every day, you can start by preparing it twice a week.

1 1. Cook in a hurry and add less water.

The hardness, thinness and particle size of food will affect the GI of food. There is no need to cook grain at high temperature for a long time, because the longer the processing time, the higher the temperature and the more water, the better the gelatinization and the higher the GI of food.

12, self-relaxation and emotional adjustment

Relaxation exercise, such as deep breathing and relaxing music to relax muscles, can help relieve stress and make hypoglycemic treatment more effective. Learn to adjust emotions and enhance self-efficacy, so as to overcome the bad mentality such as fear and negativity after illness, which is also helpful to control blood sugar.

A handful of nuts before meals.

Eating fatty foods before meals, such as almonds, walnuts and other nuts, can not only increase satiety, but also make you eat less at dinner. Unsaturated fatty acids in nuts can also help improve the insulin level of diabetic patients and slow down food digestion, thus helping to control postprandial blood sugar.

14, standing gum

Chewing sugar-free chewing gum can control the appetite of sugar lovers for snacks, but the amount should not be too much, because some brands of sugar-free chewing gum contain sweeteners, which will make the stomach feel uncomfortable at higher doses. Chewing gum will also leave a fresh breath in the mouth, and people don't want to eat smelly snacks to destroy it.

15, Tai Chi Chuan

Traditional exercise methods, such as playing Tai Ji Chuan and practicing Qigong, can help people adjust their breathing, improve blood circulation and play an indispensable role in regulating their bodies. An Australian study also found that practicing Tai Ji Chuan in patients with type 2 diabetes can also slow down the decline of physical function caused by diabetes, especially for obese patients.

16, have some vinegar

Acidic substances produced after food fermentation can reduce the GI of the whole diet. Adding vinegar or lemon juice to non-staple food is a simple and easy method.

17 Self-massage

By massaging feet and other body parts, on the one hand, complications can be prevented, on the other hand, the pancreas, liver and endocrine system can be adjusted, which is helpful to stimulate the human body to produce more insulin cells. This kind of "reflex therapy" has achieved remarkable results after long-term persistence.

18, postprandial blood glucose measurement

Monitoring blood sugar within 2~3 hours after meals helps sugar lovers to control their blood sugar level more smoothly and prevent hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. On this basis, make a more reasonable diet and exercise plan.

19, sleep time is particular.

Researchers at Yale University found that people who sleep less than six hours a day have twice the risk of developing diabetes. People who sleep more than 8 hours a day have a threefold increase in the risk of diabetes. Too much or too little sleep will interfere with hormones related to blood sugar.

20. Stay away from the bad habit of raising blood sugar.

Overeating and hunger will make the blood sugar level in the body rise sharply, especially the "sweet food addiction" and "fried food control" that girls often appear, or the appetite liberation after vicious dieting. Secondly, emotional instability, bad temper and frequent anger may also lead to increased blood sugar after meals. Of course, lack of exercise, sitting on the sofa watching TV after meals, surfing the Internet for a long time and playing games are not conducive to the stability of blood sugar. Studies have shown that people with high fasting blood sugar have a risk of diabetes 3-9 times higher than normal people, and those with high postprandial blood sugar have a risk of diabetes 4- 10 times higher.
