Never Do these six things when you have Diabetes

The dos and don’ts with food in diabetes are many. Here are six important dos and don’ts for diabetes which have to be followed to keep healthy in this condition.

Don’t eat junk foods- Junk foods provide only calories they never contain any essential nutrients. Hence don’t eat junk foods. Instead take healthy diet which is rich in vegetables, fruits and whole grains. But watch your carbohydrate intake. Limit Sugar and fat.

Don’t Miss Vitamin B12:  Deficiency of Vitamin B12 worsens diabetic neuropathy. In diabetic neuropathy the nerve endings in skin get damaged and affect the sensation of touch  and pain in hands and feet.

The New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Live and Super Immunity and one of the country’s leading experts on preventive medicine offers a scientifically proven, practical program to prevent and reverse diabetes—without drugs. At last, a breakthrough program to combat the rising diabetes epidemic and help millions of diabetics, as well as those suffering with high blood pressure and heart disease. Dr. Joel Fuhrman, the research director of the nutritional research project of the National Health Association, shows you how to live a long, healthy, and happy life—disease free. He offers a complete health transformation, starting with a diet with a high nutrient-per-calorie ratio that can be adapted for individual needs. Dr. Fuhrman makes clear that we don’t have to “control” diabetes. Patients can choose to follow better nutritional guidelines that will control it for them, even before they have lost excess weight. The end result is a medical breakthrough—a comprehensive reversal of the disease.

Until Dr. Barnard’s scientific breakthrough, most health professionals believed that once you developed diabetes, you were stuck with it—and could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems. But as this groundbreaking work reveals, this simply is not true. In a series of studies—the most recent funded by the National Institutes of Health—Dr. Barnard has shown that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse type 2 diabetes. By following his scientifically proven, life-changing program, diabetics can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard diet; and cut back on and in some cases eliminate medications while reducing the risk of diabetes complications. "The long overdue epic scientific breakthrough in diabetes is here…an obvious must-read for health professionals and for diabetic and potential diabetic patients." —Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, preventive cardiology consultant, Cleveland Clinic "This is the approach to follow…the clinically proven way to get your blood sugar under control… and start living again."—John McDougall, MD, founder and medical director of the McDougall program "Dr. Barnard’s book is no exaggeration…The signs and symptoms of diabetes can be reversed, and he’s got the evidence to prove it."—Jennie Brand-Miller, PhD, author of The New Glucose Revolution

Don’t Smoke – Diabetes leads to complications like heart disease, stroke and circulation problems. Smoking adds to the risk of developing all of these things. In some cases, smoking can double the likelihood of these conditions, as well as doubling the chances of suffering from kidney problems and erectile dysfunction related to diabetes.

Don’t skip Meals – In diabetes the sugar level keep on fluctuating. When meals are skipped it leads to hypoglycemia or low sugar in blood. This surfaces with symptoms like sweating and shakiness.

Don’t Consume Alcohol:  Alcohol when absorbed in body affects the neurological functions. It acts as a toxin to nerves. This worsens the diabetic neuropathy. Due to alcohol the liver gets stressed. There will be a deficient intake of nutrients when a person consumes alcohol. Nutrition deficiency worsens the symptoms and health risks of diabetes

Don’t avoid fiber diet: Eat as much whole grains as possible. Include vegetables and fruits which are rich in fiber. This helps to keep the bowel movement normal and also reduce cholesterol. Diabetes accelerates aging process. The antioxidants in these green vegetables and fruits slow down aging process.

Don’t be a coach potato: Increase your physical activity. A moderate physical exercise like walking helps to control fluctuating blood level and boost blood circulation to all parts of body. Regular exercise aids weight loss and helps to keep obesity at bay.
