The Spring Festival is coming, these days I believe everyone is busy buying New Year goods, cleaning up, right? During the Spring Festival, it is natural that relatives and friends gather together to eat and drink, but for the majority of diabetic patients in the mainland, this increases the pressure of blood glucose standards, and normal people will feel that "every festive season to gain three pounds", for diabetics may be more than just blood sugar rise. Because in the holidays due to improper diet blood glucose "burst" caused by various complications to emergency hospitalization of patients in recent years to see too much, so on the occasion of the Spring Festival, the doctor specially warned sugar friends, during the Spring Festival, eat and drink, can make blood sugar soar, and do this, blood sugar can be smooth and worry-free!
Do these 6 points, and your blood sugar will be smooth and worry-free
1. The total amount of diet should still be controlled
At the dinner table of every festive season, even if it is not a mountain treasure and seafood, it is certainly much more hearty than usual. I believe that this time is the most test of the willpower of sugar friends, many foodies candy friends will not be able to help eating more at this time, but do not know that because they eat more than usual, it will trigger the blood sugar "explosion". But does this mean that sugar lovers can't be greedy even in front of gourmet food? Nor is it, just pay attention to the total control. For example, if there are meat dishes that sugar friends like to eat at the dinner table and want to eat two more bites, then the amount of other meat dishes and starchy staple foods will be reduced accordingly. In short, even if the total amount of carbohydrates, fats and proteins in a meal during the holidays is relatively flat with usual, so as to keep blood sugar stable.
2. Eat fewer and more meals
Sugar friends who want to eat a variety of diets can also take the way of eating fewer meals and eating more meals, which is actually what the diabetic diet advocates. It is also possible to appropriately reduce the amount of staple food during the meal, and add some fruits between meals, or a small amount of nut-like food, as long as the total amount is unchanged.
3. Eat regularly
The Spring Festival holiday may be different from usual, but the time of eating for sugar friends should not change. Because hypoglycemic drugs need to be taken on time, they need to eat in time after taking the drug, otherwise it may lead to preprandial hypoglycemia or postprandial hyperglycemia.
4. Appropriately increase the proportion of coarse grains in staple foods
The appropriate addition of coarse grains to the diet can increase the intake of dietary fiber, and at the same time can increase the feeling of fullness, which can make sugar friends reduce the intake of food. Randomized controlled studies have shown that replacing some grain staple foods with 50 g or 100 g of oats, respectively, can significantly reduce fasting blood glucose, blood sugar 2 hours after meals, glycosylated hemoglobin, triglycerides, cholesterol and body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes.
5. Choose foods with a low glycemic index (GI).
Low GI foods stay in the gastrointestinal tract for a long time, sugar release and absorption is slow, can reduce postprandial blood glucose fluctuations, help blood sugar control, sugar friends can refer to the glycemic food control table, try to choose low glycemic index food.
6. Eat more vegetables and fruits
Most vegetables and fruits are also low glycemic index foods, and diabetics should also be nutritionally balanced, so vitamin supplements can not be ignored, and vegetables and fruits can just make up for it, so sugar friends can eat more vegetables and fruits.
In addition, the cooking method of food is also very important for sugar friends, it is best not to use the cooking method of frying and roasting, and pay attention to the control of oil, salt, sugar and other condiments when cooking dishes, and try to achieve less oil, less salt and less sugar, so that you can eat healthy and make your blood sugar stable and worry-free.
