Diabetes patients often face another health challenge — high urea acid — while managing blood sugar. Higher levels of urinary acid not only increase the risk of gout but may also pose a threat to kidney health. How, then, does a diabetic person control the level of urea acid through the “3 without 3” principle? Let’s see!Let’s start with “3 Eat”:1. Low larvae: Diabetes diabetics should eat more low larvae because larvae produces urine acid after metabolism in the body. Whole grains, low sugar fruits and vegetables, which are not only low in content but also provide the necessary nutrients and fibres, can be chosen.2. Sufficient water: Drinking more water can help dilute the urine acid in blood and facilitate its release. Diabetes patients are advised to drink at least 2,000 ml of water per day to keep urine clear and reduce the risk of urea acid crystallization.3. Equivalent dairy products: Studies have shown that lactation proteins and cheese proteins in dairy products can help reduce levels of urine acid. Diabetes patients can choose low-fat or non-fat-free dairy products such as yoghurt and defaminable milk, which not only help to control urine but also supplement calcium.And say “3 won’t eat”:1. High-eating foods: avoid eating high-eating foods, such as larvae, seafood, red meat, etc., which significantly increase the generation of urine acid.Sugar beverages and alcohol: Sugar beverages and alcohol increase the generation of urine and may affect the excretion of urine. Diabetes patients should avoid sugar-containing beverages and alcohol to reduce the increase in levels of urine acid.3. High-fat foods: High-fat foods not only affect blood sugar control but may also increase levels of urine acid. Diabetes should therefore limit the intake of high-fat food, especially saturated and trans-fat.By following the “3 without eating” diet, diabetes patients can effectively reduce their levels of urea acid and the risks of gout and other related health problems while controlling blood sugar. Remember, healthy diet is the key to managing diabetes and high urea, so let’s work together to get the urea down!
