Diabetes Cookbook For Canadians For Dummies. Cynthia Payne

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ hadn’t seen a doctor for years but, having turned 40, he figured it was time to get “checked out.” Although he was quite a bit overweight, he felt reasonably well and was very surprised when his family physician told him that not only did he have diabetes but he also had high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

      “Gee doc, I guess this means you’re going to recommend I take a whole bunch of pills, eh?” he said dejectedly.

      To Doug’s surprise, his doctor responded by saying, “Well, we could use a whole bunch of pills, but your blood glucose levels aren’t all that high and your blood pressure and cholesterol aren’t all that bad, so it’s up to you.”

      “Up to me?” Doug said with surprise.

      “Yes, it’s up to you,” the doctor continued. “If you think you can change your eating habits, cut down on your calories, and reduce your salt and fat intake, you may be able to avoid medication.”

      Doug was all for that, so the doctor arranged an appointment with Cynthia, who got Doug set up with a healthy eating program, and it didn’t take long before his blood glucose, blood pressure, and cholesterol were on the way down. Was Doug on a “diabetic diet”? As Shakespeare said, a rose would smell as sweet by any other name.

      Exploring the Key Ingredients

      Most of what people eat is made up of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Other necessary ingredients in a person’s diet are vitamins, minerals, and, in abundant quantities, water.

      Although everybody needs to pay attention to how much of each of these things he or she eats, in order to stay healthy, people with diabetes need to be especially careful to ensure they get the right amounts of the right nutrients.
