In our country, diabetes has become a common chronic disease. According to statistics, the number of diabetes patients in China has exceeded 100 million. Faced with such a large group of patients, how to scientifically eat and control blood sugar has become a concern for many people with diabetes. Today, let’s talk about the dietary regulation for diabetes patients.
First, we need to clarify a principle: diabetes patients’ diet should be based on low sugar, low fat, low salt, and high fiber. Based on this foundation, the following 8 types of food are recommended for people with diabetes.
1. Oats
Oats are rich in dietary fiber, which can lower postprandial blood sugar levels. Also, the beta-glucan in oats has a blood sugar-regulating effect. It is recommended for people with diabetes to choose oatmeal for breakfast, paired with milk, eggs, nutritious and delicious while controlling blood sugar.
2. Brown rice
Brown rice is a whole grain rich in vitamins and minerals. The dietary fiber in brown rice can help people with diabetes lower blood sugar. It is suggested to make brown rice a staple food, accompanied by lean meat and vegetables for a balanced nutrition.
3. Legumes
Lentils, red beans, black beans, and other legumes are rich in protein, dietary fiber, and minerals. Legumes can help lower blood sugar and can be included in the daily diet.
4. Vegetables
Vegetables are an essential part of a diabetic’s diet. Leafy greens, melons, soy products, etc., are rich in vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, aiding in lowering blood sugar. Diabetics should ensure intake of over 500 grams of vegetables every day.
5. Fruits
Many diabetics worry about the high sugar content in fruits and hesitate to consume them. In reality, moderate consumption of low-sugar fruits such as apples, pears, oranges, etc., has little impact on blood sugar.
6. Nuts
Nuts are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, protein, and minerals, which are beneficial for diabetics. However, nuts are high in calories, so diabetics should consume them in moderation. Eating a small handful of nuts every day can help control blood sugar.
7. Fish
Fish is rich in high-quality protein and unsaturated fatty acids, beneficial for the cardiovascular health of diabetics. Diabetics can consume fish in moderation, such as carp, crucian carp, bass, etc.
8. Tea
The tea polyphenols in tea have antioxidant and blood sugar-lowering effects. Diabetics can drink moderate amounts of green tea, black tea, etc., but should avoid strong tea.
During the dietary regulation process, the blood sugar management assistant plays a good supporting role. It reminds diabetics to measure blood sugar, record diet, and based on data feedback, tailor personalized dietary plans for diabetics.
Diabetic Xiao Wang deeply felt the convenience of using the blood sugar management assistant. In the past, Xiao Wang often forgot to measure blood sugar, and his diet control was not in place. Since using the blood sugar assistant, Xiao Wang’s lifestyle habits have greatly improved, and blood sugar has gradually stabilized. He said, “The blood sugar management assistant is like my intimate companion, reminding me to pay attention to blood sugar, giving me more confidence to overcome diabetes.”
In conclusion, dietary regulation is crucial for diabetes patients. By following the principles of low sugar, low fat, low salt, and high fiber, and consuming the above 8 types of food in moderation, combined with the blood sugar management assistant, diabetics can better control blood sugar and enjoy a healthy life. Let’s work together to defeat diabetes!
