The September/October Issue of Diabetes Forecast (page 30) had an article about how important carb counting is when you are diabetic. Compared with protein and fat, carbs have the greatest effect on your blood glucose. By counting how many grams of carb you’ll be eating, you can more accurately dose mealtime insulin and keep your blood glucose level stable. Read the labels on prepared foods that you buy, many of them will already have this information.
The September/October Issue of Diabetes Forecast (page 30) had an article about how important carb counting is when you are diabetic. It had another article about alternatives like having a quarter cup of nuts instead of a carb heavy snack. They’re full of healthy fats and protein that will do a better job of keeping you full than having those extra carbs. Eating 2.5 ounces per day of nuts instead of a high-carb snack is much more healthy. A study in the Journal Diabetologia found that people who did this improved their A1C levels significantly. For more information, contact the Diabetes and Health department at CHOMP, Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula.
