Question 1: Diabetes needs diet control, what is the key to control?

　　 Answer: Diabetes diet control, the most important is to control the total energy (mainly from carbohydrates, fat and Protein), not just control carbohydrates (mainly from staple foods, potatoes, sweets, fruits, beverages). In addition to carbohydrates, fat and protein also affect blood sugar levels. In other words, diabetics should control the intake of carbohydrates, fats (mainly from cooking oil, nuts, meat, egg and other foods) and proteins (mainly from foods such as meat, egg, milk, and soy products).

　　The standard for diabetic energy control is to maintain the proper weight of the patient, that is, obese patients should reduce energy intake (less than you eat now) to lose weight; weight loss diabetic patients should increase energy intake (Eat more than you do now) to gain weight. The goal is to maintain body weight within an appropriate range. The appropriate weight estimation method is, the appropriate weight (kg) = height (cm)-105. Within the range of 10% floating up and down, this value is "appropriate".

　　 Question 2: What foods can’t diabetes eat?

　　Answer: Like normal people, diabetics can eat any food. According to the "Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes (2007 Edition)" issued by the Diabetes Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, diabetics can even eat sucrose (white sugar or white sugar). So what else is an absolute taboo?

　　 In addition, the nutrition principles that are relatively healthy for normal people are generally applicable to diabetics. For example, the "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents 2007" issued by the Chinese Nutrition Society recommends that normal people provide no more than 10% of the total calories. The same recommendation appears in the "Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes in China (2007 Edition)". The heat provided by sucrose does not exceed 10% of the total heat."

　　Question 3: What is the key to successful diet control for diabetic patients?

　　Answer: For most (especially obese) diabetic patients, diet therapy This means reducing the amount of food eaten (eat less) and thus leads to varying degrees of hunger. In life at home, it is almost impossible for children to supervise their parents to eat less food, or husband (wife) to supervise their wife (husband) to eat less food. Therefore, diabetes diet control must depend on the patient''s strong will. This is one of the keys to the success of diabetes diet therapy.

　　Diabetic patients can eat any food, the key is to control the amount. In particular, it is necessary to control the total energy, namely the amount of three nutrients carbohydrate, fat and protein. Under the premise of total control, it is also necessary to maintain a suitable proportional relationship between carbohydrate (50%~60%), fat (20%~30%) and protein (15%~20%). To accurately accomplish these basic principles, simple recipe calculation is very necessary. Diabetics should understand some basic methods of recipe calculation (by reading related science books, studying online or purchasing special software). This is the second key to the success of diabetes diet therapy. If a person with diabetes does not understand any recipe calculations, it is difficult to successfully complete dietary treatment simply by saying "not to eat this food, not to eat that food" or "to eat less of this food, to eat more of that food" .
