The Truth about Sugar and Diabetes
Many people think that if they have diabetes, they can never eat cakes or sweets again. You can even still eat your favorite desserts. You just need to make a set for a special occasion, like a birthday or wedding. I recently ate a small amount of cake at a friend's wedding, and it didn't lower my blood sugar.
Myths about sugar
The myth that sugar causes diabetes is the most common fact
for most people. Experts have proven that eating sugary foods is not linked to
the development of diabetes. Diabetes is a problem of overeating and obesity.
The body has never cared where foods like cakes or hamburgers come from. The
real culprit is excessive weight gain.
In the past, doctors advised diabetics to completely avoid
all foods containing sugar. They believed that eating sugary foods raised blood
sugar levels. Studies have shown that the type of carbohydrate strongly
influences the increase in blood sugar. The total amount of carbohydrates also
influences the increase in blood sugar. Experts say that even small amounts of
carbohydrates can help maintain blood sugar levels by replacing
carbohydrate-containing foods in the diet.
Don't eat too many sweets. Buy and eat away from home for
better control. Eat dessert with someone else and share it with them.
