In the daily lives of diabetics, “eating” is always a matter of many problems and caution. And every meal is in front of you, and there’s a trade-off in the heart: one more bite, fearing that the blood sugar will rise, and less, fearing that it will be undernourished. So how much is appropriate for every meal? Is there a clear standard? Today, let’s talk about this key topic in detail.
The choice of staple foods as an important link in the energy supply is essential for diabetics. In general, the appropriate diet (in terms of reproduction) per meal for men is about 100-150 grams, while for women it is 75-100 grams. If you take the usual example of staple foods, 100 grams of rice is cooked, which is almost the amount of a bowl full of regular domestic food; if it’s a bun, 100 grams is about half the average. Don’t just stare at the white side of the rice, but it’s got to be a coarse mix, and it’s slow, it’s slow to digest, it’s flat, it’s fungible, it’s fungible, and it can be arranged in turn for the daily diet, so that it doesn’t fluctuate.
Protein is essential to maintain body functioning and to repair body tissue. Daily intake is determined on the basis of body weight and is calculated on the basis of 1 – 1.2 g/kg body weight. For example, a 60-kilogram diabetes patient needs 60-72 grams of protein per day. And it’s distributed to each meal, like a piece of thin meat of moderate size and normal thickness (about 50-70 g), two fish of ordinary size (about 80-100 g), and a glass of 250 ml of milk and an egg, which basically meets the protein demand for each meal. The choice of high-quality sources of protein, such as skinny meat, fish meat, beans, etc., both secures body “power” and stabilizes blood sugar.
Vegetables account for “half of the mountain” in the diet of diabetics, with a daily intake of not less than 500 grams. Green leaves, like spinach, lettuce and broccoli, are no problem. They are rich in dietary fibres, vitamins and minerals, low heat and high abdomen, and they help to control blood sugar and improve intestines. As for fruit, it has to be eaten at a level of blood sugar, at 200 grams or less per day, like half-sized apples and a few grapes. Fruits, which are low sugar-rich and fruit-rich, such as grapefruit and oranges, are put in a two-meal gap, which solves the problem without overburdening blood sugar.
However, this is a common reference criterion, and every diabetic patient has a different age, physical activity and complications. It is recommended that he/she communicate with doctors and nutritionists on a regular basis, and that he/she adjust the diet with flexibility and precision, so that it becomes a real sugar-controller, a healthy life.
