Also Maintaining Healthy Blood Glucose Levels is hell of a thing, Here's how you can maintain Healthy Blood Glucose Levels
Maintaining Healthy Blood Glucose Levels
- Balanced Diet: I follow a balanced diet rich in whole grains, lean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of fruits and vegetables. Avoiding high-sugar and high-fat foods helps me maintain stable blood sugar levels.
- Regular Exercise: Physical activity is crucial. I aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise most days of the week. This helps improve insulin sensitivity and keeps my blood glucose in check.
- Medication Adherence: If prescribed, I take my medications or insulin as directed by my healthcare provider. Never skipping doses and taking them at the same time every day ensures consistent blood sugar control.
- Stress Management: Stress can affect blood sugar levels, so I practice relaxation techniques such as yoga, meditation, and deep breathing exercises.
- Regular Check-ups: I have regular appointments with my healthcare provider to monitor my overall health and make any necessary adjustments to my management plan.
I'm sorry that I have to reply.
This post as you have laid out is healthy and understandable for a non diabetic, who has no imbalance in their response to carbs and sugar.
If you are T2 or the many conditions that are metabolic, then low GI, is high GI.
The GI index was garnered and developed by using non diabetic patients to get those results.
It should not be used for the treatment of T2!
Most of those suffering from T2 or other metabolic conditions, cannot do regular exercise, Age, disability, even weight issues, we try but it's not good for them oftentimes. Walking should be suggested or chair exercising.
Meds are not the total answer. Dietary control should always be the benchmark of first diagnosis, even tested when prediabetic and advised to use diet properly. Obviously reducing carbs and sugars.
A tailored dietary regime for you not what the experts that insist on carbs that are wholemeal, etc, a carb is a carb.
I actually agree about the stress.
The reason that there are so many on here that have joined is because our healthcare, has been wrong for us.
I was a long time on that diet, it was killing me. And there are many and I mean many, on here that will agree with me.
One size does not fit all, that is why your advice is not helpful.
Diabetes whatever type is so individual. What works for you, is dangerous to me and others.
In your advice, eat something that is expensive and probably hard to get in their country, is just astounding.
What I can eat, is not what you can eat!
What my tastes are are not yours!
You don't mention fasting of any kind?
Why not?
The NHS is out sync with modern thinking with the NICE advice, even though they are slowly changing.
Please be careful with your advice.
I have a condition that is carb intolerant. Sugar intolerant, grain intolerant, anything sugar with ose at the end intolerant.
I would be dead if I followed your advice.
I have 'Late Non Diabetic Reactive Hypoglycaemia '
Have you heard of it, Doctor?
There is a correlation between T2 and my condition that symptoms and first phase insulin response imbalance, happens. And luckily along with my condition, I would be T2 as well, if I didn't eat to my tailored dietary regime.
Regards Doctor.
