The happiest time in life is nothing but getting together with family and friends, enjoying food, and sharing happy moments. It is a pity that many friends with diabetes cannot enjoy all this to their fullest due to physical health factors. In fact, as long as you pay attention to a suitable diet and maintenance, diabetes can also be prevented! Today we are going to show you how to control yourself and prevent diabetes.

The medical profession often calls diabetes the most difficult chronic disease to cure. Regardless of the severity or type of the condition, with or without complications, and whether or not to take medication, patients can use a few simple methods to relieve the condition:

1. Control the heat
First of all, the restriction of total calories per day is emphasized, and the principle of maintaining ideal body weight or standard body weight is the principle. Overweight and obese people must reduce calories in order to achieve the purpose of treatment.

2. Reasonable nutrition
The proportion of the main three nutrients (fat, protein and sugar) that diabetics consume should be reasonable, otherwise it will be detrimental to the functioning of the liver. The average total calories are 30% (25-35%) fat, 15% (10-20%) protein and 55-60% sugar. Too much protein is not good for diabetes, and it is prone to diabetic nephropathy.

3. Limit fat and cholesterol
In the United States, the daily intake of fat cannot exceed 30% of the total daily calories, mainly unsaturated fatty acids, and the daily intake of cholesterol cannot exceed 300 mg. Patients should avoid high cholesterol foods such as egg yolks, butter, crustaceans and organ meats. Beef, pig, and suet are rich in saturated fatty acids and should be eaten sparingly. Choose unsaturated fatty acids from plants, hard fruits and poultry.

4. Limit sodium
To avoid too much salt, too much sodium intake can easily cause high blood pressure. The American College of Cardiology recommends that the daily intake of sodium salt does not exceed 3g. In case of high blood pressure, sodium should be less than 2g per day. For diabetics, especially those with high blood pressure, salt intake should be strictly restricted.

5. Avoid foods that are easy to absorb sugar
Sucrose, honey, all kinds of candies, desserts, biscuits, ice cream, soft drinks, etc., because of the fast absorption, the blood sugar peak is obvious, which is not good for diabetics.

6. Eat high-fiber foods
Eat more beans, roots, green vegetables, grains (rice, barley, wheat, oats, rye, corn) and fruits. Fiber in high-fiber foods can slow down the absorption of sugar, enhance insulin sensitivity, and can significantly improve hyperglycemia.

7. Eat smaller meals more often
It can reduce the high blood sugar peak after meals, which is extremely beneficial to the control of high blood sugar.
