Eating Habits to Fight Diabetes

Dealing with diabetes is tough enough without worrying about eating healthy.

During diabetes, blood sugar levels can be quite fragile. Even small amounts of sugar can send it skyrocketing…

Or not eating on time can cause it to crash. Controlling blood sugar levels is not only about what we eat, but also what we DON’T eat.

So what should we eat?

Certain foods can wreak havoc on your blood sugar. But others can help along with your fight against diabetes. Three of the top foods that help are…

Fruits and vegetables

Most fruits and veggies are filled with good vitamins and minerals. They contain heart-healthy sterols and stanols. These are antioxidants and blood-sugar-regulating fibre. They include soybeans, avocados, and corn. These kinds are high in polyunsaturated fats.

But be careful of too much fruit, as even the healthy sugars found in fruit can have the same negative effects as refined sugar when not eaten in moderation.

Whole grains

Whole grains are packed with vitamins and micronutrients since they have not been processed. They include both the bran and the germ of the grain. Whole grains are digested by the body more slowly than their processed counterparts. This slows the release of sugars and moderates blood sugar levels.

How you eat matters, too

Eat frequent, small, high-quality meals throughout the day. This will help you to consume fewer calories while maintaining a steady blood sugar level. People who eat small, frequent meals are much more likely to have a healthy weight which lowers their risk of type 2 diabetes.

And what must we cut from our diet?

1. Trans fats

Most trans fats are plant-based fats that have been chemically altered. Studies have shown that trans fats are unhealthy for your cardiovascular health. They can be far worse than the animal fats that they were made to replace.

2. Processed Sugars

The human body needs sugars. But those are found naturally in whole, natural foods. Our bodies are not designed to handle the huge amounts of sugar that come from sugar-filled foods and drinks.

High volumes of processed sugars cause your blood sugar levels to spike and then crash. This cycle leads to overeating and obesity – two clear predictors of developing type 2 diabetes.

3. Sugary drinks

When you drink sugary beverages, you consume much more grams of sugar than you would even from eating pastries or candy. Replace sugary drinks and sodas with mineral water or, better yet, green tea – either hot or iced. Green tea has been shown to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

4. Highly processed carbohydrates

Grains that have been highly processed, such as white flour, have no bran or germ and very little fibre. This means that they are quickly digested and turned into sugars in your bloodstream. This causes the same type of blood sugar and insulin spikes as seen with white sugar.

A healthy diet is not complicated. Eat whole, natural, low-fat foods, including lots of fruits and vegetables, and avoid sugar, trans fats and processed carbs whenever possible. It’s as simple as that.
