Good Snacks For Diabetics Diet
Is this a balanced diet?
I am a diabetic on pills but I just need a diet that any healthy person would eat with low sugar.
8am- low carb yogurt, banana, cherrios & cinomin in it.
10am a couple cups of popcorn or a 1/2 an apple with peanut butter
noon-salad bar kind of salad or a healthy soup with whole grain crackers & meditaraniun I can't believe it's not butter
or a tuna sandwich with some broccoli & dip
3pm same snack as the one at 10am but the opposite one than the one I picked earlier
5pm a proten such as fish or chicken, 1 whole grain peice of break with butter, veggie & a sweet or baked potato
8 pm a yogurt to keep my sugar steady through the night & I believe the calcium is relaxing & it keeps me from getting hungry
Thanks any ideas or suggestion or comments are welcome
No, most of the things you've listed are not good for diabetics because they quickly turn into sugar.
Yogurt, bananas, & cheerios all quickly turn to sugar (even if it says sugar free).
Crackers, even whole wheat are high in carbs, dips & baked potatoes are even worse, so is corn (yes popped as well).
The best diet I found that is both healthy & balanced is the South Beach Diet. They give you easy recipes to follow. You can pick up the book at the library or buy it for a reasonable price at Amazon.com
I had such good success with it that the last time I went to the doctor, he told me: "whatever you're doing, keep it up." It lowered not only my sugar count, but my cholesterol & triglycerides as well.
