It has to be said that type 2 diabetes in my country has entered a period of high incidence in recent years. More than 90% of the nearly 120 million people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes.

  The emergence of this disease, in addition to genetics, is actually more affected by the acquired bad life and eating habits, which eventually leads to insulin resistance and blood sugar metabolism disorders.

  Once diagnosed with diabetes, in order to stabilize the glycemic index and reduce the risk of diabetes complications in the later stage, what the patient can do is to actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment with medication, and comprehensively control it through diet and exercise.

  However, many diabetic patients have fallen into different dietary mistakes, which not only have no benefit for disease control, but aggravate the development of the disease.

  For example, the following four common dietary mistakes, sugar friends should try to stay away:

  1. Don’t eat rice

  In the eyes of sugar lovers, rice is refined carbohydrates, which are absorbed faster and tend to increase postprandial blood sugar. Therefore, many sugar lovers are close to coarse grains in the choice of staple food, and even bid farewell to rice completely.

  As everyone knows, whole grains do contain a certain amount of dietary fiber, which candelay . However, it will affect the absorption of other nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract , which may lead to malnutrition problems over time.

  Therefore, what sugar friends need to do is to reasonably match the staple food with coarse and fine grains, and the ratio of coarse grains to 1/3 is the best state;

  

2. Vegetarian

  Many people with diabetes worry that all kinds of meat will cause blood sugar to rise, so they choose a vegetarian diet, that is, three meals a day are all kinds of vegetables.

  As everyone knows, no matter it is any food, its essence is a single type of nutrition. Eating only vegetables seems to be a healthy choice, but it will also cause malnutrition , which not only increases the risk of fatty liver disease, but also may lead to hypoglycemia . appearance. You must know that the onset of hypoglycemia is far more dangerous than hyperglycemia;

  3, do not eat fruit

  Most fruits contain sugar, mainly in the form of monosaccharides and disaccharides, which may cause blood sugar fluctuations, so many sugar lovers are reluctant to eat fruits.

  As everyone knows, fruits contain sugar, and there are many essential nutrients for human body, such as vitamins, organic acids, aromatic substances and so on.

  It can not only provide nutrients to the body, but also promote the absorption of other nutrients , so diabetics can also eat fruits, especially some low-glycemic types of fruits;

  

4. Do not count the calories of three meals

  The real diet adjustment that sugar lovers need to do is not to say goodbye to a certain food completely, or just eat a certain food, but to control the total calories of the three meals on the basis of balanced and reasonable nutrition.

  That is to say, when you eat more of a certain food, you must reduce the intake of other foods, and the calorie consumption and calorie intake are in a state of dynamic balance , so as to avoid problems such as hypoglycemia and postprandial blood sugar rise .

  Finally, it should be emphasized that diabetes diet control, daily exercise and weight loss are indeed necessary, which can help reduce blood sugar.

  However, this does not mean that life adjustment can replace drug treatment. If you want to fully stabilize your blood sugar, you must take various hypoglycemic drugs as recommended by your doctor, and combine insulin injection therapy if necessary.

  At the same time, patients also need regular blood sugar testing in their lives to understand the overall control of blood sugar.
