What are the dietary treatments for diabetes?

1. Dietary therapy is a treatment that all diabetics need to adhere to. Light cases can receive good results mainly by diet therapy. For middle and heavy patients, it is also necessary to rationally apply physical therapy and drug therapy on the basis of diet therapy. Only diet control is good, oral hypoglycemic agents or islet pancreas can play a good effect. Otherwise, it is difficult to achieve good results in clinical practice, relying on the so-called new medicine and neglecting the diet.



2. The diet plan should be adjusted and flexibly controlled at any time according to the condition. Patients with wasting can be appropriately relaxed to ensure total calories. Obese patients must strictly control their diet, with a low-calorie fat diet and weight loss. For those who are treated with insulin, care should be taken to prevent hypoglycemia from 9 to 10 am, 3 to 4 pm or before bedtime, as appropriate. When you have a lot of physical labor or activities, you should also pay attention to the proper increase of staple food or meals.

3. In the diabetes diet, it is necessary to arrange the staple food and the non-staple food scientifically. Don't just pay attention to the staple food and despise the non-staple food. Although the staple food is the main source of blood sugar, it should be controlled, but the protein and fat in the non-staple food can also become blood sugar and become a source of blood sugar. Protein and fat are converted to glucose by 58% and 10%, respectively. Excessive amounts of such non-staple foods can also increase weight and are unfavorable to the condition. Therefore, in addition to reasonable control of staple foods, non-staple foods should also be reasonably matched, otherwise the expected results cannot be achieved.
