diabetic diet guidelines nutrition

Proper nutrition means to accentuate the positive when it comes to food. I dislike the word diet. “Diet” implies a rigorous, self-sacrificial discipline that’s doomed to fail. Instead, focus on achieving food goals of what you should eat each day rather than what you shouldn’t eat.

The dietitians recommendation, based on a study published in the Journal of American Nutrition and Diet, recommends a high calcium and oxalate diet on the theory that such a diet will have the calcium and oxalate combine in the digestive track before they get to the kidney. An additional concern is that the urologist recommended diet cuts out many food groups that I have come to believe are good for you: whole wheat bread and pasta, beans, leafy green vegetables, nuts, green tea, chocolate.

By eating a proper nutrition/diet, exercise daily, and maintain a healthy normal body weight along with keeping normal cholesterol and blood pressure levels you have an excellent chance of keeping diabetes out of your life.

Start eating a healthier nutrition by cutting out animal fats to get your lipid panel back to normal. Google search diabetes nutrition and follow the guidelines before you become a diabetic.

Hi there, There are no foods or diet specific to HCV; if you have compensated liver disease, you should be able to eat pretty much anything you enjoy; within obvious limits. If your cirrhosis is decompensated, e.g. ascites, encephalopathy, bleeds, then limiting red meats while maintaining adequate protein intake with legumes, white meat chicken, fish, soy products and the like is preferable. Additionally, your doctor might limit your sodium intake as well.

I am looking for information on nutritional guidelines that could be of great benefit to folks living with MS and information on foods that would help us fight ms fatigue. Any and all information you can point me too would be greatly appreciated Best regards and be well, Alex Bermúdez M.

t giving you the support you need to learn how to manage your diabetes, then you are right and you need to seek a different doctor, nurse practitioner or diabetic educator. You need someone to help you find the diet and exercise regime that works for you; we are all different, some people prefer to follow a set diet with mealplans and menus, Others (like me) prefer general guidelines that I can follow and find what works best for me.

Hi my mother is patient of diabetic 2 she is 55 year old .

You are on the right track so take a deep breath and hang in there! I disagree with the person who said you are a "half step from being put on insulin". I'm sorry, but it doesn't work that way! For a Type II diabetic the correct step for you and your doctor to take is to start you on some oral medications and help you to learn the right way to eat. I agree with the person who said not to think of it as a diet but as good nutrition. Please don't be afraid to eat!

The three important factors in controlling and managing a type 2 diabetic lifestyle are proper nutrition, proper weight and daily physical exercise. One does not reduce their diet, per se, instead makes lifestyle changes so what they should be eating counts. Use Google to research, understand and apply the Glycemic Index to your lifestyle. Use Google search on 'diabetic bodybuilding' for other suggestions.

However, people generally feel better on a healthier diet. So, I disagree that there is an MS Diet or an MS-recommended diet. The assumptions on which these diets are based have been shown to be faulty.

Thanks for posting back and clarifying who you are. Is Jerry eating "so much, so often" because he's hungry or trying to gain back lost weight in a hurry? If the latter, Jerry needs to know that binge eating does more harm than good and what he eats plays a large part in glucose levels. Glucose spikes - rapid high then rapid dropping - is hard on the cardio system. That is why I say well proportioned meals, eat until one feels full and then stop.

ve started following some dietary guidelines, and it would be nice to know if there are other having any success with this. I could kill for a slice of pizza right now, but ... no wheat!

If you areb diabetic, or pre-diabetic, diet is more important than ever. Ask your doctor for guidance on nutrition and diet control. 4. Regular Medical Care: This is so important. An annual physical with bloodwork is so important. The earlier your doctor can identify a medical problem, the better. It's a lot easier to manage a condition when caught in its early stages.

I dislike the word diet. “Diet” implies a rigorous, self-sacrificial discipline that’s doomed to fail. Instead, focus on achieving food goals of what you should eat each day rather than what you shouldn’t eat. When you consume more vegetables, healthy fats [such as olive oil and nuts], lean proteins, fruits combined with low carbohydrate, low calorie, low starchy foods, your hunger will be satisfied and you will naturally want to make better choices.

I have been pre-diabetic for almost 1.5-2 years now. I have had tingling sensation all over the body, Numbness in feet and slight neurotic pain in the legs below knees. And I have been having these bumps on my penis and pubic region for the same amount of time. I have been negative for STDs. And recenly the tingling, itching is mostly in the groin area. My vision seems to be blurred since yesterday. My fasting sugars right now range between 104 -118.

If your postprandial elevates as high as posted it is quite obvious your food plan/diet/nutrition is in need of adjustments. Use Google to search for diabetic foods to avoid. Your moniker assumes Asian Indian ancestry. If so, search for diabetic Indian foods and diabetic foods in India. Both return lots of hits.

First, congrats in controlling your diabetes and making a lifestyle change to get off injecting insulin. I too am a vegan but not full blown for I do eat fish for the protein. There are no pros in eating red blooded animal flesh. This is my opinion only, others may differ. Google search under "diabetic vegan nutrition" turned up 158,000 hits http://tinyurl.com/45pwnx. And "diabetes vs vegan" resulted in 1,390,000 hits, all positive on vegetarian diets.

But that depends on your type of medication, diet/nutrition, physical exercise, and how your often/when you test your glucose levels. This would include what was discussed during your last regular scheduled checkup with your doctor's office. That is information you didn't give us.

I was recently told that I am borderline diabetic and the endo gave me a meter to check my sugars with...and I checked them when I spontaneously got itchy last week...the number was 147 or some such. Last night I was itchy too...my sugars were 143....but a few hours later i was still itchy and my numbers dropped to 106. Does this happen to anyone else? Is my itchiness related to my blood sugar?

Ive read many problems concerning the Diabetic diet posted on the diabetes website that it hurts the diabetics more than helping them. Is this true? What do you think?

By drinking two shakes to substitute two meals they lose weight fast, like 10 lbs in one month. I am hypothyroid and diabetic and finding it hard to lose even 3 lbs. I fluctuate back and forth. Please let me know if any of you have tried Herbalife.

Besides following a diabetic diet and perhaps going on insulin, I have no idea. Good luck, though.

I am very curious to learn whether or how proper nutrition can affect Chiari symptoms. Of course, we all know that eating right is going to help us feel better regardless, but is there any correlation between Chiari and low blood sugar, or Chiari and light headedness due to diet causing more weakness? Or Chiari and brain fog due to diet? I know this is somewhat of a loaded question, but I also know this is the only place I'm going to find an answer! Thanks for any input!
