I know people warn against salad at fast food places or restaurants because you don't know how long they leave it out or if it's at the right temps.. but that sounds really paranoid to me. A Salad from outback is better than pasta, etc. From outback I would think..
How about a tracker for daily food intake for those of us who track foods for diabetic and other
health issues? Breakfast-Snack-Lunch-Snack-Dinner-bedtime snack.
If you eat junk food, such as chips, cookies, candy, etc, you should exchange them for veggies, fruit cheese, yogurt, low fat dairy, nuts, seeds, etc. Opt for plenty of protein and complex carbs and limit simple carbs, such as those found in sugary foods, products made from white flour, white rice, regular pasta etc. Opt for whole grain breads and pastas, sweet potatoes, etc. Exchange sodas and fruit juices for water or other unsweetened beverages. Try Stevia instead of sugar.
However, if he is exercising, then he can get away with eating something like a whole fruit right before exercising (depending on his glucose level) beforehand and the cardio exercise will even it out. There is a Diabetic Exchange Diet that is in books where they assign you certain amount of meat, bread amounts that you can have at each meal - or trade off a lean meat for a little more fat, etc. so you don't have to count calories.
) but go for a walk or exercise after. The main thing is not eat too much. Protein helps alot so you stay fuller longer. And protein doesn't break down into sugars later.
The best diet for a diabetic is quite similar to one for a non-diabetic. A well balanced diet will keep anyone healthy. The best foods for him are the same foods that are good for you. However, lower carb foods can help prevent highs.
What a diabetic needs to understand about food is that to accurately count the carbohydrates in the food is essential. If you need help figuring out carbs, Calorie King has an excellent book which lists carbs for most foods and restaurants.

m having a difficult time finding restaurants in the Bergen County area (I live in the Pascack Valley) that are allergy-aware and safe. Can you give me some suggestions? I'd love to be able to safely dine out with my family.
Thanks.
Short of that, many restaurants offer carry out. Many chain restaurants do that, where you call ahead and you pick it up. Chilis, Ruby Tuesdays, Outback, etc. And of course pizza joints. We went through a period of several months after our daughter turned 2 where we just couldn't take her out. It got better when she learned sign language and we learned what things set her off sensory wise.
s at a bar, club, family event, restaurants, even loud movies at the theater.... Anywhere, where you have to speak loud to hear another right next to you...the next day (not that night), I wake up with a severe headache, dehydration, pale complexion, nausia, brain fog that lasts 24 hours. I tried ear plugs (helps minimally), tried drinking more water (added electrolytes) (helps minimally). Extra sleep helps minimally but can't always get that.
Peripheral neuropathy is more of a symptom than a diagnosis. I guess Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy (Peripheral Neuropathy with unknown cause) could be a diagnosis. Peripheral neuropathy can be from toxins (including alcohol,) Diabetic Neuropathy, etc. Once all the "symptom related diseases" have been ruled out, and you can't find a cause, then a diagnosis of Idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy would seem appropriate.
I am not diabetic, but I have taken on some of the habits of diabetic dieting by cutting my amount of sugars and carbs in order to just be generally healthier. I've cut back on fats by a lot and try to eat meat sparingly, because I get my protein from other places. I eat meat, just not a lot of it. I have also cut how much junk food I eat by a lot. Say I go to a party, I might have a piece of cake, but otherwise I don't eat junk.
Seriously, if anyone figures it out post it here! I think there is some preservative in the food that is used at most/all restaurants. Just wish I knew exactly what it is so I could avoid it.

15+ years as diabetic, 5 heart attacks (1 major 4 minor), gastroparesis (80% of stomach removed); she was on a dilaudid PCA pump at home with IV zofran also. She is between 60-65.
Are there any tests that can determine the level of brain damage?
Would another EEG do any use at this point?
Is there any way to tell how long this could last or if she can make a full recovery?
Are there any blood tests that can confirm anything at this point?
I am a 57 years old diabetic (type 2) male with a computer job in Toronto.I have been using bifocal noline progessive eye glassess for last six years untill I got catarcat in my both eyes.
My cataract was removed and new Multifocal Toric Tecnis (ABBOTS) IOL (intraocular lens) was replace in January,2016 in my left eye..
Should I be following a diabetic diet which offers a similar type of exchange as I have described above. Relatives who have passed away on my mother's side all have suffered from Type II Diabetes. I just had my sugar tested today in the lab to see where my levels are at. I probably won't get the results until next week.
I'm not looking for the grapefruit or cabbage type of diet, but something other then counting points on the W.W. plan.
Hey I am doing a kids book exchange. What it is is you send one new kids book to a child and Your child would receive 36 new books in return. But in order to get your books you have to send the instructional letter / text to six other ppl that will participate. I need a few more ppl send my letter to. Any interest in joining this?
The IOL exchange is another operation, more difficult than the first with risks of infection, bleeding, retinal detachment, retinal swelling, vitreous loss.
that doesn't mean you shouldn't have the surgery. We take risks all the time we just don't think about them (driving, flying, exercising, not exercising, etc).
I should have posted this question at this site before my second procedure. Would going back to Crystalens for a third exchange be advisable? That way I could go back to 20/20 distance and would have a chance to possibly be able to read newspapers also. What new risks could there be? My advice to others that are considering lens exchange would to first seek a second or third opinion first and definitely use this board. Comments/advise are appreciated.
A week ago I underwent cataract surgery and monofocal IOL. Past history of Lasik in 1998. I was informed prior to surgery that this certainly complicates calculating the correction necessary in the IOL. Prior to surgery my vision in this eye was 20/70. One week post-surgery, I am 20/200. I am disappointed, as I know my surgeon is also. I know he did everything as correctly as he could; even showed me the 8 formulas and the results which ranged from 18.5-22.0 diopters.
Finally going for an IOL exchange after years of suffering from poor vision with a multifocal lens. I was also told that I have notable PCO on the same eye. Is it possible to undergo both exchange and Yag at the same time or are these two separate procedures?
Could I for instance do relaxing limbal incission before the exchange or under the exchange or maybe after? Or could I eventually use the new technlogy Resight refactive index shaping if it gets FDA approval? If the bag tears my surgeon must use sulcus lenses. Is there any toric sulcus lenses or how could I adress this without contacts or glasses? Are there any sulcus lenses with lower refractive index than 14.7?.
