Thank you for your invitation! There are a variety of symptoms of diabetes, and everyone reacts differently, but most people may have fatigue, personality changes, and some people become thin.




The formation of this disease is complex, it may be family genetics, acquired diet, not exercise, too obese, etc., to say how to prevent? Really need to start from the diet, exercise, adjust the mood and so on!

The number of diabetics is also increasing with the times. So how should we prevent diabetes?

First, have the habit of checking blood sugar regularly. Regular blood glucose checkups are mainly for people who are obese, overweight, have high blood pressure and blood lipids, and have a family history of diabetes, and it is recommended that these people with a high incidence of diabetes should go to a regular hospital to have their blood glucose measured once every three years after they reach the age of 30. The habit of regular blood glucose checking is mainly to help early detection, early treatment, and reduce the chances of diabetes in people with high prevalence of the disease.

Secondly, regular exercise, as the saying goes, "Life is about exercise." Every day with regular and persistent exercise thirty minutes of people, can effectively prevent type one diabetes. This thirty minutes of exercise can choose to walk, jogging or swimming, on the human body is not harmful. One of the main effects of exercise is to stimulate the body's insulin, increase the amount of insulin secretion, and then can effectively prevent type 1 diabetes.

Thirdly, you should control your blood pressure. Weight loss should be achieved through the right way, not just dieting, the correct way to lose weight is through exercise and regulate diet, in the process of losing weight, pay great attention to the abdominal fat, because the abdominal fat down, can greatly improve the body's sugar tolerance. Control the value of your blood pressure, the fluctuation of blood pressure is closely related to diabetes.

Fourth, keep your mouth shut and your legs open to control your weight. The factor of obesity is an important cause of type 1 diabetes, so control your weight.

Typical symptoms of diabetes are thirst, excessive drinking, excessive eating, excessive urination, and weight loss, i.e., the "three more and one less" symptoms. However, many patients with type 2 diabetes do not have the typical symptoms of "three more and one less" at the time of diagnosis, but have atypical symptoms such as fatigue, fatigue, itchy skin, blurred vision, wounds that don't heal easily, and numbness in the limbs.

Excessive dietary intake, obesity and physical inactivity are important risk factors for the development of diabetes, and the main measures to prevent diabetes are:

1. Regularly do diabetes screening, test fasting blood sugar and do oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).

2, to pay attention to low-salt, low-fat, low-sugar diet, eat less pickles, squash, bacon and other pickled foods, fried foods such as doughnuts, oil cakes, potato chips and sweets such as candies, cakes, cookies, etc., eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, control the total intake of the day.

3, to change the sedentary habits of life, less movement, every day to insist on exercise, to develop a 30-minute daily exercise, weekly exercise 5 days of good habits.

4. Keep your weight in the ideal range. Overweight or obese people need to control their weight.

5. Quit smoking and limit alcohol, and develop good living habits.

Hello, I am May sister, now ready to reveal the answer to this question, if you have a special suggestion for the answer, welcome to leave a message in the comment area, agree with can be in the bottom right, like can be in the upper right point of attention, my headline is the dietitian May sister. The most common clinical symptoms of diabetes are three more and one less, that is, more urine, more drink, more food, and relatively weight, of course, this is just an approximation, but also some will appear weakness, ketoacidosis and other symptoms. The most accurate way to diagnose diabetes is to measure fasting and postprandial blood glucose, fasting blood glucose is greater than or equal to 7.0mmol/L, postprandial blood glucose is greater than or equal to 11.1mmol/L. If you happen to experience these symptoms, you can measure your own blood glucose.

How to prevent diabetes:

• Weight control. Studies have shown that obesity and the occurrence of diabetes have a close relationship, the pathogenesis of diabetes is caused by insulin abnormalities, and insulin abnormalities will affect the excess or lack of energy substances, the body will make the body appear obese or thin. Therefore, the first and foremost task in preventing diabetes is to control your weight well.
  

• Maintain physical activity. Proper physical activity not only maintains your body shape, but also reduces insulin resistance, which is helpful in the occurrence of blood sugar.
• Eat a balanced diet. Only on this basis can the body absorb enough comprehensive nutrients to maintain a normal metabolism, avoiding metabolic disorders and increasing the burden on insulin beta cells.
  
• Regular medical checkups. This is mainly early detection, early treatment, to regularly understand the knowledge about diabetes, clear to their own health comprehensive grasp.
  

In addition to the above, should also pay attention to the quality of sleep, avoid overeating, drink less carbonated beverages, etc., to prevent diabetes from me, healthy action to create a healthy future.

Thanks for the invite!

Twenty years ago, very few people knew about diabetes and the rate of getting diabetes was very low, today, 20 years later, diabetes has made it one of the most talked about diseases at the end of the day. People with diabetes can be found everywhere around them. The prevalence of the disease has increased dramatically as material living conditions have gotten better, which is really something to think about.

The typical symptoms of diabetes are "three more and one less" symptoms. That is, more drinking, more eating, more urination, weight loss. But these symptoms are not necessarily reflected in a person, may account for one of the same, may be asymptomatic, more than half of type 2 diabetes, symptoms are not obvious, mostly light patients, many people have complications or accompanying symptoms in the clinic, or in the health checkups were detected in the health center we encountered most of the diabetic patients were measured during the physical examination, and part of a complication to the hospital, the doctor told him that you have had less than five years, the doctor told him that you have had less than five years, the doctor told him that you have had less than five years. The doctor told him that you have had diabetes for less than five years.

In general, it is still the result of people's lack of attention to the disease and their lack of knowledge about health.

In fact, as long as you are careful, there are still some symptoms occurring, for example, long feeling thirsty, drink a lot of water, still thirsty, night urination increases, meal size suddenly grows, always feel that you can't eat enough. Weak legs and feet, go out to walk for a while, need to rest for a while, fatigue, lack of spirit, labor force sharply reduced. Weight loss of less than 10 kilograms, and so on.

If you have any of these symptoms, get checked to see if your blood sugar is normal.

How to prevent diabetes?

Prevention of type I diabetes mellitus.

① Avoid ingesting drugs and chemicals that are toxic to pancreatic β-cells, some of which are heavy enough to inhibit insulin synthesis and secretion, and some of which further lead to the destruction of β-cells.

② Promote breastfeeding from an early age and try to avoid adding cow's milk at an early age.

Type II diabetes prevention.

① Adopt good eating behavior and lifestyle, balanced diet, reasonable dietary structure, daily physical activity, etc.

② Eat and move in a balanced way to maintain a healthy weight. When overweight or obese, it is important to intervene (reduce weight) and not let it go. Recommended reasonable diet + moderate exercise. Control the energy intake throughout the day, in fact, regardless of the initial weight, as long as the total low energy diet can increase insulin sensitivity.

③ When the standard value of blood glucose is found to be in the stage of hypoglucose tolerance, that is, fasting blood glucose <7 and postprandial blood glucose in the stage of 7.8-11.1, it is necessary to intervene and dietary control, and not to leave it unattended and allowed to develop. Because this level of value is between normal and diabetes a special metabolic state, is currently considered to be hypoglucose glucose tolerance (IGT) is the pre-diabetes manifestation, it is the development of diabetes is an excessive stage, so this time to intervene, dietary control is the key to the prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

④Middle-aged and elderly people must have a good annual physical examination.

Type 2 diabetes basics that matter! It matters!

The knowledge points and advice given to you here will incorporate the latest research findings and turn your original preconceptions on their head. Crucially, this is what is reliable.

First, mild diabetes has no typical symptoms. It may be accompanied by slow lesions of the fundus of the eyes and feet, without ever having the "three more and one less".

Secondly, this type of type 2 diabetes without typical symptoms is a massive presence in the morbid state. They don't even know they are diabetics for the rest of their lives if they don't get tested.

Third, this type of diabetes, which has no typical symptoms, basically does not affect life expectancy.

Even if their blood sugar is at 10/11/12, or even higher.

Four, this type of diabetes exists because the individual's stress that caused the blood glucose to rise is interrupted, and the body is no longer stimulated by the stress, and there is no longer any ongoing damage.

So, clearing the stress response is the most important thing when dealing with type 2 diabetes.

Five, all of the complicating symptoms of type 2 diabetes come from free radical bursts of damage in the stress response. Not from blood sugar.

Blood sugar is non-toxic and harmless, it is vital nutrition.

Six, the only direct harm from elevated blood sugar is the occurrence of a hypertonic state. This very rarely occurs with some kind of stressful stimulus.

Seventh, the occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, which corresponds to the typical symptoms of "three more and one less", signifies that the disease has entered a serious state! It also indicates that the organism has suffered continuous stress damage.

Eight, the essence of the three more and one less, is that the body needs high blood sugar, and due to the insufficient supply of blood sugar, it has to prompt eating and initiate gluconeogenesis, resulting in polyphagia and wasting.

So, people with three more and one less need high blood sugar more than other diabetes! They need to be careful about lowering their blood sugar. Otherwise they can trigger an immediate hypoglycemic reaction.

Nine, to treat diabetes, instead of going all out on medication to lower sugar, you should go all out to clear the stress damage experienced by the organism.

Removing the damage is the bottom of the barrel. Reducing sugar in one fell swoop is adding fuel to the fire.

Ten, stable hyperglycemia would be essentially harmless, not affecting life expectancy, and complications would not progress.

That's the cure.

Eleven, attempts to restore blood sugar to normal levels are futile, and even more so, they can lead to serious complications such as ketoacidosis.

Pharmacologic hypoglycemia leads to severe glucose insufficiency, and the body initiates the gluconeogenic stress response, which is the root cause of ketoacidosis.

Twelve, type 2 diabetes has nothing to do with eating staple sugars. Sugar lowering cannot be pursued through eating control. Sugar intake must be adequate.

Thirteen, the most frequent complication of type 2 diabetes is the "hypoglycemic reaction".

Fourteen, this is the true face of type 2 diabetes.

Thank you for inviting me ❤ I'm a Diabetes Nutrition Intervention Dietitian, and the following experience is summarized below, I hope it helps you ❤

I. Only some early diabetic patients, there are typical clinical manifestations of three more and one less, more common early manifestations, there are skin scratching, vision loss, urinary tract infections, cholecystitis, pneumonia, swollen and painful gums, recurrent skin infections, broken wounds do not heal, wounds do not heal after surgery, ketoacidosis, numbness of the hands and feet, pain in the limbs, habitual claudication, intractable perineal itching, edema, diarrhea and constipation alternately. dyspepsia, decreased libido and erectile dysfunction.

Second, of course, blood glucose is the most direct way to find diabetes, so often physical examination found high blood glucose should start to pay attention to, but some of the elderly will appear fasting blood glucose is normal, postprandial blood glucose is high, it will be easy to miss the diagnosis, so should be even postprandial glucose also test.

Third, what is the normal value of blood sugar?

Fasting sugar 3.89-6.1 mmol/L Normal value of blood sugar 1 hour after meal 7.8-9.0 mmol/L Normal value of blood sugar 2 hours after meal 3.9-7.8 mmol/L

IV. Who is prone to diabetes?

1. Overweight and obese people. Waist circumference ≥ 90 cm for men and ≥ 85 cm for women.

2. Middle-aged and older persons over 40 years of age.

3. Family history of diabetes (immediate family including parents and siblings).

4. Patients with hypertension and hyperlipidemia.

5. Women with a history of delivery of a large child (birth weight ≥ 4 kg) or a history of gestational diabetes mellitus.

6. People who smoke, have low physical activity (less than 30 minutes per day on average), lead stressful lives and are under constant mental strain.

7. Chronic insomnia or excessive sleep.

8. Patients receiving long-term treatment with antipsychotics and/or antidepressants.

So, if you have any of these problems, remember to improve them, and testing your blood sugar often is the best way to prevent diabetes!

Diabetes mellitus is hyperglycemia triggered by malfunction of pancreatic beta cell secretion, type 2 diabetes mellitus also exists in the body insulin resistance. In the past, diabetes mainly refers to type 1 diabetes disease, diabetes clinically the most common symptoms are three more than one less, that is, more urine, more drinking, more food, weight is relatively not heavy, the aggravation of the condition triggered by wasting, of course, this is just an approximation, there are some will appear fatigue, blood glucose is too high when the trigger ketoacidosis and other symptoms. In modern times, due to frequent body checks, especially type 2 diabetes, there are no obvious symptoms before and after the onset of the disease, and when there are symptoms, they are already very serious.

The causes and mechanisms of diabetes mellitus are unknown. Type 1 diabetes, in particular, may be genetically related, and the triggers are not understood. Type 2 diabetes accounts for about ninety-five percent of all diabetes mellitus, and is caused by a syndrome of disorders of fat metabolism and glucose metabolism, as well as a sensitive inactivation of the human organism to produce resistance to insulin. Here we talk about some of the information that appears in the body before the onset of diabetes mellitus type 2.

In the first few years of the onset of type 2 diabetes, about forty percent or more, can be the first lipid metabolism disorder syndrome, lipid indexes appear abnormal, such as whole blood lipid elevation, triglyceride elevation, about three years or so caused by fasting blood glucose elevation.

I thought, if the economic situation permits, elevated lipids should be checked 0.5 hours to 3 hours of pancreatic islet cell secretion, at this time, if the secretion of insulin and C-peptide indicators higher than normal 20% 30% of the words, at the same time, glucose metabolic disorders syndrome has begun, the human body insulin resistance has begun, this is the pre-diabetic period, when fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose indicators are still normal.

Some type 2 diabetes mellitus develops a few years before the blood pressure rises to 80 to 130, why the blood pressure rises to cause diabetes mechanism is not clear.

Some of the patients had a pre-morbid body mass index of 25 to 35 and were somewhat overweight.

Type 2 diabetes has a slow onset and an urgent onset of about six months, that is, fasting blood glucose from 5.5 rose to more than 7 to 8, but the early dyslipidemia or elevated blood pressure or overweight exist for many years. More people have a slower onset, if the physical examination fasting blood glucose will be two or three years between 6.0 and 7.0, or postprandial blood glucose between 7.8 and 11, and now the medical definition of this period for pre-diabetes.

If there is pre-diabetes or elevated blood lipids and blood pressure or overweight, at this time, dieting dietary control less miscellaneous grains and rice noodles eat more eggs, milk, soybeans and so on is feasible, at the same time lose weight, increase the amount of exercise, especially at night from six o'clock to eleven o'clock to reduce dietary calories or have a role to play, it is necessary to eat Betel or statin drugs to reduce blood lipids or cholesterol, but also can be the lowest dose of half of the acepromiline to control blood pressure and blood viscosity, generally speaking, will not develop into diabetes, and the blood pressure will not develop into diabetes. Blood viscosity, generally speaking, will not develop into diabetes. If blood glucose rises, it is also possible to take the lowest dose of metformin, it is recommended that 0.25 grams of one tablet be taken only one tablet a day for two to three months. If high insulin secretion is detected, the need to take Tzds is not recommended in the current guidelines and standards of care, but it is recommended that Tzds be consumed for two weeks, not more than one month, to reduce insulin resistance, which is easier to control in the future.

More than 70% of the measures taken can be reversed, and the percentage of islet cell inactivation is very small, about 5%, and the pancreas can still secrete normally.

If the onset of diabetes mellitus type 2 is too rapid, or you haven't had your body checked in years, and the checkup is already the beginning of diabetes mellitus, don't panic, this won't kill you, and it can still be partially reversed with the right treatment plan, and the pancreatic cells may only be deactivated by about one-fifth.

The most accurate way to diagnose diabetes is to measure fasting and postprandial blood glucose, fasting blood glucose is greater than or equal to 7.0mmol/L, postprandial blood glucose is greater than or equal to 11.1mmol/L, or HBA1C is greater than 6.5. Personally, I believe that the three-month glycated blood glucose HBA1C indicator is more accurate, which indicates that your blood glucose is high at least three months or more.

At this time, the treatment program is emergency hypoglycemic two weeks up to three months, generally speaking, more than ninety percent can be converted to metformin to control blood sugar. In addition, more than fifty percent through exercise dieting weight loss life control, in the emergency glucose reduction, there are three months to six years do not have to eat glucose-lowering drugs, and even up to fifteen years do not eat glucose-lowering drugs blood glucose is normal, which indicates that the pancreatic islet cells Behaviours cell inactivation is not more than thirty percent.

There are two main categories of emergency hypoglycemic programs:

Blood sugar less than 10

Metformin + Prolactin + Tzds + Life control + Exercise.

Blood sugar greater than ten

Dimethylsucrose + insulin + life control + exercise for weight loss.

Where Tzds women work better.

How to prevent diabetes:

Weight control. Keeping blood lipids and blood pressure normal in various indicators.

Stay physically active.

Reasonable physical activity not only maintains the figure, but also reduces insulin resistance, which is also helpful in the occurrence of blood sugar. This one of the direct factors in preventing dysglycemic syndrome.

Eat a balanced diet. It allows the body to absorb enough comprehensive nutrients to maintain normal metabolism and avoid metabolic disorders that increase the burden on insulin beta cells.

Regular medical checkups. Forty years of age or older, it is best to check the blood lipids and blood sugar once every six months. The main thing is early detection, early control, early treatment, to regularly learn about diabetes-related knowledge.

In short, the indicators of type 2 diabetes are first abnormal at the beginning of the disease, and when the symptoms appear, the disease has already developed more serious.

What are the most typical symptoms of diabetes.

Includes 3 more and 1 less.

Three more means thatDrink more, urinate more, eat more.

One less means, weight loss.

Why do diabetics have these symptoms.

Because diabetics have high blood sugar, they also have increased urinary sugar, so this ultimately leads to lead to increased urine output.

Although diabetics cannot metabolize their blood sugar efficiently despite their high blood sugar, they need to eat more and lose weight.

How to prevent diabetes.

Considering that diabetes is clearly hereditary.So if you have a diabetic in your family, it's possible that you're more likely to get diabetes than others, so you need to be more careful.

Obesity and smoking definitely contribute to the development of diabetes.

So keep your mouth shut, don't eat more fatty foods, don't smoke, and keep your weight within the normal range.

Ensuring that you exercise every day is definitely a top priority, and regular exercise allows you to increase your insulin sensitivity and delay or avoid the onset of diabetes.

Diabetes is a condition in which the level of blood sugar in the body is higher than normal. Blood glucose is the amount of sugar in your blood that is used to produce energy, so this is actually an important element. Glucose stays in your blood when you eat foods that contain glucose, such as bread, rice, potatoes and some other vegetables and fruits. This glucose is carried by the blood to all the cells in the body and is used to make energy.

Insulin helps the blood carry glucose, and insulin is produced by the pancreas. If there is not enough insulin or it does not work properly, the blood cannot carry glucose and it stays in the bloodstream. When glucose doesn't reach your body's cells and builds up in the blood, it becomes too high, which is called diabetes.

Types of Diabetes

Diabetes is not limited by age or gender. Both men and women of all ages can develop diabetes. There are two types of diabetes you should be aware of because they can both lead to harmful diseases if not treated properly.

Type 1 diabetes

This type of diabetes occurs mostly in young people and is caused by a lack of insulin in the body. Insulin is produced by the cells of your pancreas, but when the immune system, which normally protects the body from viruses or bacteria, does not work properly or even destroys the cells, insulin cannot be produced. Since it is caused by insulin deficiency, the usual treatment is insulin injections or medication. Blood sugar levels should be controlled with a healthy lifestyle and healthy foods.

Type 2 diabetes

This type of diabetes can happen to anyone at any age, but it occurs mainly in older people. Inactive and overweight people are also at a higher risk of developing this type of diabetes.Type 2 diabetes is caused by an increased demand for insulin in your body because of increased sugar intake. This high demand leads to insulin resistance, a condition in which receptor cells become resistant to insulin, keeping glucose in the bloodstream. The higher the blood sugar, the higher the demand for insulin.

At first it causes the pancreas to produce more insulin, but then it no longer produces enough insulin, which is why it becomes type 2 diabetes. The treatment for this type of diabetes is practically the same as for type 1 diabetes; you need to control your blood pressure, stay active, live a healthier life, and take your medication.

The symptoms of diabetes may be easy to know, but some of them are not known until they are severe. If you have diabetes, here's a list.

1. Unexplained weight loss

Diabetes Symptoms - Unexplained Weight Loss The most common diabetes symptom is weight loss. Losing weight may be a dream for overweight people, but when you lose weight without even trying anything, it's an unhealthy form of weight loss caused by insulin not working properly in carrying glucose. Normally, glucose is supposed to be transported to your body's cells to produce energy, but when there is no energy; your body is making a mistake. It thinks you are still starving.

That's why your body uses the protein in your muscles to create energy because there is no glucose. At the same time, the amount of glucose in your body is increasing and your kidneys should work harder to eliminate it. As a result, calories are reduced and you lose weight quickly. The kidneys need a lot of energy to eliminate glucose from the blood, and this is normal when more calories are reduced.

2. Blurred vision

Blurred vision is one of the causes of diabetes that may not be taken seriously because it can be mistaken for an eye condition. High blood glucose can cause blurred vision, in which case you may occasionally notice some flashes of light or fiducials in your vision as the shape of your lenses change. It can also be caused by high glucose levels making it difficult for your lenses to focus on something, resulting in a lack of fluid in your eyes.

3. Thirst and excessive urination

Diabetes makes people urinate more frequently and causes a feeling of thirst. This is common when you have to make multiple trips to the restroom; you need to drink more and more because your body is losing water. Thirst and frequent urination are two symptoms that go hand in hand; one cannot be separated from the other.

Normally, when blood glucose levels are normal, your body can do the absorption, so getting your blood glucose back to normal can help treat this condition. In addition, the kidneys work very hard to filter glucose levels, and this organ can become fatigued. While it's at it, the rest of the sugar is excreted into the feces along with your urine, making you want to drink and pee more.

4. Weakness

Especially at night, when you have to come and go back and forth to the bathroom, you definitely become tired. Not because you have to walk from your bed to the bathroom, but because your body is more prone to glucose deficiency as you urinate more often. The feeling of dehydration can make you even more tired for no apparent reason.

The sugar in your body no longer contributes to boosting energy, so you can easily feel bad. As mentioned earlier, when insulin doesn't work well, glucose can't be transported to the body's cells, and when it does, glucose doesn't produce energy.

5. Increased hunger

The main problem with diabetes is because the glucose level in your blood is rising. Glucose itself is actually very important for your body as it is later converted into energy and makes your body feel better. However, since glucose is not carried to the cells in your body, they are not converted into energy, which leads to hunger because your body thinks it still needs to eat.

6. Tingling in hands and feet

High glucose levels in your blood may damage the nerves in your body. When nerves are damaged, you will feel numbness or tingling, mainly in your feet and hands. This tingling sensation can be accompanied by burning and pain.

You can treat this symptom by controlling your blood sugar, as lowering it will also reduce the tingling sensation. However, when you leave it too long, it can become permanent. The best way to treat high blood sugar is to treat it quickly when the symptoms appear.

7. Slow healing

This is actually a typical diabetes symptom that probably almost everyone already knows. When a person is suffering from slow healing, this is mainly associated with diabetes. When a nerve in your body is damaged, you may feel numbness or tingling, just like the symptoms mentioned earlier, but the damage occurs in the blood vessels and it leads to a slow healing state.

When blood sugar levels become high, blood vessels are damaged. Glucose stays in the blood vessels and prevents the blood from flowing smoothly to other parts of the body, thus healing the wounds.

8. Gum problems

When your body is healthy, it protects itself from bacteria that can cause problems for your gums. However, when you have diabetes, your body is weakened, so the bacteria may not be carried away. This can eventually lead to inflamed gums.

Gums become soft and teeth become loose. The bone is not strong enough to clench the teeth. Not only are they tender, but they are also accompanied by redness and swelling.

9. Weight gain

While sudden weight loss is one of the symptoms of diabetes, unexplained weight gain is another, albeit contradictory, symptom.

Because you urinate a lot and the glucose in your blood isn't even converted to energy, your body is short on calories, so you lose some weight. When you lose weight, you can also gain weight because you get hungry easily.

Your body doesn't feel full because the energy isn't well formed. That's why it craves more and gains more weight.

An unhealthy lifestyle is one of the causes of diabetes. It is time you choose more carefully what you are going to eat to keep your blood sugar normal. Foods high in carbohydrates, sugar and fat should be avoided. So here are some types of foods to eat and avoid.

(polished) rice

A 2012 study has proved that women who consume white rice have an increased risk of the disease by about 11%. Therefore, it's best to limit your intake of white rice and replace it with brown rice, which contains fiber-rich whole grains to combat high blood sugar. You don't have to eat it every day; just once or twice a week may be a good preventive measure.

caffeine

When you drink regular coffee with no syrup or whipped cream and very little sugar, it's good for your health. However, many people prefer to mix creamers with a mixture of sugar and syrup, which can lead to elevated blood sugar. It would be better if you do some simple exercises like walking after drinking coffee to prevent your blood sugar from rising.

confectionery

Who doesn't love the sweet flavor of pastries? They are addictive and make you crave more and more. However, eating pastries will only raise your blood sugar. Therefore, if you love your health more than pastries limit your intake or if you already suffer from diabetes, do not eat them at all. They are the worst because firstly, they are high in carbohydrates and secondly, they contain a lot of sodium and fat.

Melons and bananas

Fruits are very healthy and natural, but why should you avoid certain types of fruits? Because they contain high levels of sugar, such as melons and bananas. Choose foods that are rich in fiber and vitamins and don't eat sugary ones. For some people, eating these fruits may not cause a rise in blood sugar, but they make it more likely than other types of fruits. Berries are better because they are low in sugar. You don't have to eat too many of them.

fruit juice

Just because a packaged juice is labeled "sugar-free" doesn't mean it's healthy for diabetics. You can't just trust the label without checking all the ingredients listed. So why don't you just eat the whole food instead of turning it into juice? When the fruit isn't turned into juice, it contains concentrated sugar that can be slowly absorbed by your body, keeping your blood sugar under better control. It's much easier to just take one and eat it.

If you are truly aware of diabetes, try to live a healthier life by being more active and eating the right kinds of foods. These two factors can greatly reduce your risk of developing diabetes. Instead of having to eat junk food out, you can make your own food at home and do some exercise.
