So, can diabetics also enjoy chocolate?
In fact, diabetics can eat any food, as long as they make a good substitution.
Because chocolate contains cocoa butter, even sugar-free dark chocolate will still make you gain weight if the calories of fat are not replaced with your daily diet, which will affect your blood sugar control.
Diabetic patients are prone to hypoglycemia because of their large amount of activity when going out on a date.
If you feel flustered, sweaty and hungry, you can eat a piece of candy or chocolate in moderation to relieve the symptoms of hypoglycemia.
Generally speaking, proper intake of chocolate is beneficial to health, but scientific choice is very important.
There are three kinds of chocolates on the market: dark chocolate, white chocolate and milk chocolate. These three kinds of chocolates have different compositions.
Milk chocolate consists of cocoa butter, cocoa powder, cocoa liquor, sugar, milk powder, essence and spices;
Dark chocolate consists of cocoa butter, cocoa powder, cocoa liquor, sugar, essence and spices;
White chocolate consists of cocoa butter, sugar, milk powder, essence and spices;
A small amount of cocoa liquor will be added to individual white chocolates. Different brands and types of chocolate have different raw material ratios and different tastes.
It is suggested that people who love sugar should give priority to chocolate with low sugar content and pay attention to fat content.
Dark chocolate is the best choice. The higher the purity, the higher the content of cocoa powder and polyphenol antioxidants, but the taste is bitter. So chocolate usually adds some sugar. Chocolate with high sugar content (some products are as high as 50%) is unhealthy. It can be said that a large amount of sugar offsets the health benefits brought by cocoa, especially for diabetics, and it will also cause blood sugar fluctuations, which is not worth the candle.
Therefore, diabetics should pay attention to the carbohydrate content in the food ingredient list when choosing chocolate.
The ingredient list also needs to be read. It is not advisable to choose chocolate with white sugar at the beginning.
If you want to send chocolate to diabetics, it is recommended to choose dark chocolate, which will send romance and health to you.
On Valentine's Day, diabetics can not only eat chocolate and express their love together, but also go for a walk or find some exercise together, which can not only consume calories and blood sugar, but also warm their feelings.
I wish every couple health, sweetness and happiness!
