Common Questions and Answers about Carbohydrate foods pasta
carbohydrate
Can I obtain my carbohydrate intake just by eating (vegetables and fruits), or is it important that I also eat (breads, pasta, potatoes and rice in small quantities)?. Or do I have to eliminate them completely from my diet????
2. I do not understand the exact relation between the amount of carbohydrates taken and the glicemic index. Could I eat food of low glicemic index, and still obtain the amount of carbohydrates required daily???? Does high glicemic index means more carbohydrates???
Eat organic whole grains, vegetables, fish and poultry, and fruits, and lean beef and pork.

1. Avoiding white foods; foods made with white flour [breads, crackers, etc], pasta, starches such as potatoes and white rice. Instead eat whole grains, vegies, fish, poultry and lean meats. Avoid high carbohydrate foods as these turn quickly into sugar after eating. Read all nutrition labels carefully. Sugars listed under carbohydrates are presented in grams.

While it is normal to have a rise in blood sugar level after a meal, excessive rise in blood sugar levels could indicate inappropriate dosage/ timing of injecting the insulin or excessive or inappropriate proportion of carbohydrate in diet. You could start by slightly lowering the carbohydrate and increasing the protein portion of diet. If this does not seem to help, I would suggest consulting your treating endocrinologist for adjustment in dosage/ timing of the insulin.
Hope this is helpful.

Experts believe that for many people, the problem stems mainly from a diet overloaded with simple carbohydrates -- bread, pasta, pizza, pastries, crackers, chips and other processed snack foods, sweetened beverages, corn syrup, and other quickly-digested sugars and starches. In other words: the typical modern Western diet.

"I watch what I eat and track it everyday."
Which is what? People say "watch" but eat the wrong types of foods. Are you on a restricted carbohydrate diet? If no it's time you were. Are you eating starchy foods like potatoes, pasta, white rice, or foods made with white flour such as white breads and crackers? How are you controlling and managing your diabetes?
No starchy or sugary foods like potatoes, rice, pasta and flour. And no low-fat or fat-free processed foods (they are loaded with sugars, carbs and chemicals). Stay away from margarine and other fake manmade fats. Fats containing high proportion of omega 3 is the healthier option (like salmon, olive oil, nuts, coconut, etc) Eat real whole food more than processed food.
My baby shower is this weekend and we are just going to have some pasta salad those pin wheel sandwiches. Veggie and fruit trays and some little oven type foods like egg rolls. Then cupcakes and Costco carrot cake! But you could always do bbq or something like that!
We drink milk without antibiotics or hormones, whole grain or whole wheat bread and pasta, limit our red meat, drink plenty of water, no artificial sweeteners allowed since they cause me migraines, and I make more food from scratch than boxed meals.
For example, having a protein source each meal --- meat / fish or cheese or yogurt; with a carbohydrate --- bread, pasta, rice, cereal; and a fat ---- pat of butter or mayonnaise if you made a sandwich. Good protein sources are meats, chicken, fish, beef, pork, etc.; and dairy products such as milk, yogurt, cheeses, pudding, and ice cream. It is good he eats pork and chicken.
overweight, poor nutrition [eating sugary foods and liquids, high carbohydrate diet [foods made with white flour, white breads, pasta, potatoes, and starches as these turn into sugar after digesting], and lack of daily exercise.
