Introduction: According to surveys and studies, diabetes has gradually become a high-incidence disease in our country in recent years, and the number of diabetic patients in our country is showing an increasing trend year by year.
Almost one in every 10 adults is diabetic, and the reason why the incidence of diabetes is so high is inseparable from the causative factors that cause diabetes.
The occurrence of diabetes is mostly closely related to incorrect eating habits. When the intake of sugar is high, blood sugar levels will rise sharply.
When my country's material conditions were not particularly good before, the incidence of diabetes was very low, but now everyone's dietary standards have increased a lot.
So now, everyone can generally achieve a state of eating more and eating well, but this phenomenon is accompanied by increased weight, increased body fat, and then an increased prevalence of diabetes.
This shows that the relationship between diabetes and eating is very close. This also confirms the saying that disease enters from the mouth.
Therefore, we often hear the sentence, "I have high blood sugar, and I dare not eat anything."
Everyone cannot live without staple foods in life. Staple foods mainly include rice, steamed buns and noodles, but can diabetics eat them casually?
Rice, steamed buns or noodles, which one is more likely to raise blood sugar? Listen to what the doctor says
The glycemic index is used to measure the impact of sugar on blood sugar. After food enters the gastrointestinal tract, it is digested quickly and has a high absorption rate. Glucose is also released relatively quickly.
Therefore, blood sugar will rise. Foods with low glycemic index are digested slowly, stay in the gastrointestinal tract for a long time, release glucose slowly, have low blood sugar peaks and raise blood sugar slowly.
Foods with a glycemic index below 55 are called low glycemic index, 55 to 70 are called medium glycemic index, and foods above 70 are called high glycemic index foods.
The glycemic index of steamed buns, rice and noodles are 88.1, 83.2 and 81.6 respectively. In fact, there is not much difference between the three, except that steamed buns are slightly higher. All three are high glycemic index foods.
But you can’t eat any staple food:
Many people who want to lose weight or have diabetes don’t want their blood sugar to be so high, so they think that not eating staple food can make their glycemic index and less high.
In fact, this idea is wrong. Diabetic patients must meet their total caloric intake for a day, which means that although people’s staple food has relatively high blood sugar.
But you can't stop eating. You can eat less, that is, only eat a little bit, so that you can meet the calories your body needs for a day.
If a diabetic patient is relatively active, he should eat some staple food appropriately, otherwise it will easily develop into hypoglycemia, and the harm of hypoglycemia is greater than hyperglycemia.
Therefore, whether you are a diabetic patient or anyone else, you should eat an appropriate amount of staple food every day, and you cannot eat nothing at all.
Understand the glycemic index:
The glycemic index is called the "glycemic index", which refers to the area under the blood glucose time curve and the standard substance (usually glucose) caused by the rise in blood sugar caused by food containing 50 grams of carbohydrate The ratio of the area under blood sugar time is multiplied by 100, which reflects the speed and ability of a certain food to raise blood sugar compared with glucose.
is an indicator that reflects the degree of increase in blood sugar in the human body caused by eating, and has a guiding role in the dietary reference for diabetic patients.
Of course, different foods have different glycemic indexes, and the glycemic index of glucose is usually set at 100.
A glycemic index of 70 is a high glycemic index food. Foods with a high glycemic index are quickly digested and absorbed after entering the gastrointestinal tract, and release glucose quickly, causing blood sugar to peak quickly.
Foods with a glycemic index ≤55 are low glycemic index foods, and foods with a low glycemic index stay for a long time after entering the gastrointestinal tract and release glucose slowly.
results in a lower post-meal blood sugar peak, causing a smaller post-meal blood sugar response, requiring less insulin accordingly, avoiding severe fluctuations in blood sugar, and effectively controlling blood sugar.
How to eat correctly for diabetics:
One: Eat regularly and quantitatively. Three meals a day should be as regular as possible. What and how much you eat should be moderate. Don’t stop eating until your stomach is bloated. Blood sugar 2 hours after a meal Not enough It is appropriate to exceed 8 mmol/L.
Second: Try to drink less porridge, fried foods, vermicelli and pumpkin. If there is steamed rice, don’t eat steamed buns, if there are steamed buns, don’t drink noodles, if there are noodles, don’t drink porridge, to avoid post-meal highs. blood sugar.
Third: No matter what you eat, how you eat, or how much you eat, you must find a diet pattern that suits you according to your physical condition. In short, the standard is to keep your blood sugar within 2 hours after a meal.
Conclusion: Do you understand?
