With the improvement of living standards, people pay more and more attention to health. There are more and more diabetic patients, and the current medicine can only control the blood sugar of diabetes, but not increase it. More depends on the usual diet control. Most diabetics want to satisfy their appetite, so their relatives around them should pay special attention to their diet. So what food can diabetics eat at ordinary times?

1, what is the best food for diabetics?

People with diabetes should eat less or no fruit food, and eat less fruit when their condition is stable. Choose the principle of low sugar when eating fruit. Eat lean meat, fish and shrimp, etc. , is a kind of food with high protein and low fat. Refers to foods made of high dietary fiber, such as buckwheat and oats. Although these foods take a long time to digest and absorb, they will eventually become glucose. Vegetables with starch as the main component should be counted in the staple food. These vegetables include potato, sweet potato, lotus root, yam, water chestnut, taro, lily, water chestnut, arrowhead and so on. Beans other than soybeans, such as red beans, mung beans, broad beans, kidney beans, peas, etc., are mainly composed of starch, so they should also be counted as staple foods.

1. Eat non-staple food in moderation.

2. Do not eat hard fruits such as peanuts, melon seeds, walnuts, almonds and pine nuts.

3. Eat more foods containing dietary fiber.

4. Eat less salt.

5. Eat less foods containing cholesterol.

6. About eating fruit. Patients with better blood sugar control can eat fruits with lower sugar content, such as apples, pears, oranges, oranges and strawberries, but the amount should not be too much. The time to eat fruit should be when blood sugar is low between meals. If you eat fruit in the future, it is equivalent to adding meals, and your blood sugar will rise immediately. In addition, after eating watermelon, sugar is absorbed quickly, so try not to eat it. Banana has a high starch content and should be counted as a staple food.

7. Sweetener will not be converted into glucose and will not affect the change of blood sugar, so it cannot be used as a self-help food for hypoglycemia.

8. People with diabetes should not limit drinking water.

Many vegetables can be eaten as fruits, such as tomatoes, cucumbers and melons. Every 100 grams of food contains less than 5 grams of sugar and is rich in vitamins. Can completely replace fruits, is suitable for diabetics and can be popularized.

In addition, the amount of food should be matched, not the same. Watermelon contains 4% sugar, pear contains 12% sugar and banana contains 20% sugar. Watermelon contains less sugar, but if you eat 500 grams, it is equivalent to banana 100 grams and pear 170 grams, so you should not eat more. You should also pay attention to the way you eat fruit. Don't eat immediately after meals, but eat between meals or before going to bed. It is best to try to eat, that is, to measure urine sugar 2 hours after meals. If urine sugar increases, it needs to be reduced; If urine sugar is still high after fruit reduction, the amount of staple food should be reduced appropriately.

2. Precautions for diabetic diet

1. The staple food of diabetic patients is generally rice and flour. Coarse grains such as oats, cereals and corn flour contain more inorganic salts and vitamins, and are also rich in dietary fiber, which has the function of lowering blood sugar and is conducive to controlling blood sugar.

2. The protein source of diabetic patients is soybean and its bean products. On the one hand, its protein is of good quality; On the other hand, it contains no cholesterol and has the function of lowering blood fat, so it can replace some animal foods, such as meat.

3. When diabetics are still hungry during calorie control, they can eat vegetables with less sugar, add some seasonings after boiling with water, and they can eat. Vegetables are essential foods for diabetics because of their high dietary fiber, high water content, low thermal energy and strong satiety.

4. Foods forbidden to eat include: white sugar, red pond, glucose and sugary sweets, such as candy, cakes, jam, candied fruit, ice cream and sweet drinks. In addition, there are potatoes, yams, taro, lotus roots, garlic sprouts, carrots and so on. , containing more carbohydrates, using less after eating or reducing the corresponding staple food.

5. Lard, butter, foreign oil, cream, butter, etc. Those rich in saturated fatty acids are seldom used, so it is better not to use them. Vegetable oil can be used instead of some animal oil. Peanuts, walnuts, sesame seeds and melon seeds also contain a lot of fat. Try not to eat or eat less or reduce oil intake.

6. Egg yolk and viscera of animals such as liver, brain and waist contain quite high cholesterol and should be used as little as possible or not.

7. Fruit contains glucose and fructose, which can raise blood sugar. Therefore, when the control of blood and urine sugar is relatively stable, when the fasting blood glucose is 7.8mmol/L or the postprandial blood glucose is 2 hours 10 mmol/L, it can be eaten at two meals or before going to bed, but the corresponding staple food should also be reduced.

8. Alcohol, mainly containing alcohol, has high heat production and few other nutrients, so it is not suitable for drinking.

9. In addition to controlling the total calories, the diet of diabetic patients should also be diversified, but due to the limitation of sugar and salt, the taste of dishes is relatively single. In view of this, there are many sweeteners in the market that do not produce heat and do not contain any nutrients, such as stevia and sweet sugar. In recent two years, there is a kind of sweetener, proteoglycan, which is composed of amino acids, has no fever and side effects, and is an ideal sweetener at present, such as Newt sugar, yuanzhen sugar and so on.

10, for insulin-dependent patients, it is also necessary to strictly implement diet control under the guidance of doctors and nutritionists. For obese diabetic patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease, in addition to strict diet control, animal viscera, egg yolk, roe and so on. Animal oils such as butter, lard and butter are strictly controlled, and saturated fatty acids are not good for preventing atherosclerosis.

1 1. For diabetic patients with renal insufficiency, besides controlling the total calories, we should also pay attention to the intake of less salt, no salt or less sodium and less protein according to the condition. Protein's supply should not be too high, avoid soy products. For uremia, a low-protein diet should be adopted. Protein takes about 30 grams a day. Wheat starch should be used as staple food instead of rice, flour and protein to supply high-quality protein, such as milk, eggs and lean meat.
