About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Diabetes and Nutrition”.

This medical PowerPoint presentation tells us how nutrition plays a crucial role in managing diabetes, and how a balanced diet is essential for people with diabetes to maintain healthy blood sugar levels. A healthy diet for diabetes should include a variety of foods from all the food groups, with a focus on whole, unprocessed foods that are high in fiber and low in added sugars.

Carbohydrates have the most significant impact on blood sugar levels, so its important for people with diabetes to monitor their carbohydrate intake. Carbohydrates can be found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, and dairy products, and its important to choose carbohydrates that are high in fiber and low in added sugars.

Protein and fat can also affect blood sugar levels, although to a lesser extent than carbohydrates. Foods high in protein and fat, such as meats, fish, nuts, and seeds, can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates and prevent blood sugar spikes.

In addition to monitoring their diet, people with diabetes should also pay attention to portion sizes and aim to maintain a healthy weight. Regular physical activity can also help improve blood sugar control and overall health.

Its important for people with diabetes to work with a healthcare provider and a registered dietitian to develop an individualized nutrition plan that meets their specific needs and preferences.

Slide 6-

The Diabetes Pyramid
Slide 7-

Healthy Food Choices A healthy daily meal plan includes at least… 2 to 3 servings of nonstarchy vegetables 2 servings of fruit 6 servings of grains, beans, and starchy vegetables 2 servings of low-fat or fat-free milk About 6 ounces of meat or meat substitutes Small amounts of fat and sugar
Slide 8-

The Plate Method
Slide 9-

Which Plate is Better?? A 10 inch dinner plate-a typical dinner plate A 8 inch dinner plate-this is the recommended plate to use
Slide 10-

The Plate Method
Slide 11-

Fruit = Milk = Starch Sometimes, if you want an extra starch during a meal, you just need to omit a fruit or milk from that meal.
Slide 12-

Visualize Portion Sizes 1 cup pasta/rice is about the size of a fist. 1 oz of cheese is about the size of your thumb. 1 or 2 oz of crackers, nuts, or snack crackers equals a handful. 1 fruit is about the size of a tennis ball.
Slide 13-

Exchange List for Meal Planning Oldest method for meal planning. Based on Dietary Guidelines and My Pyramid. Includes a variety of foods. Emphasizes label reading and most exchanges are listed under the food label.
Slide 14-

Carbohydrate Counting Newest method of meal planning. Type 1 or Type 2 can use. Requires reading the food label. Requires constant blood sugar monitoring. When reading the food label, look at total carbohydrate grams only. Carbohydrates are found in milk, breads/starches, fruit and starchy vegetables only!
Slide 15-

Know Your Carbohydrates
Slide 16-

More on Total Carbs… Helpful for carb counters. Look at the total carbohydrates not the grams of sugar. Total carbohydrates include: sugar, complex carbohydrates, and fiber content. When a food has 5 g or more of fiber per serving: subtract half the fiber grams from the total grams of carbohydrate for a more accurate estimate of the carbohydrate content.
Slide 17-

Sample 1800 calorie Carbohydrate Counting Meal Plan Breakfast:  2 servings of starch, 1 fruit serving, 1 milk serving, 1 meat serving, 1 fat serving. Lunch:  2 starch servings, 1 fruit servings, ½ milk serving, 2 vegetable servings, 2 meat servings, 2 fats. Dinner:  2 starch servings, 1 fruit serving, 2 vegetable servings, 3 meat servings, 2 fats. Snack:  1 starch serving, 1 fruit serving, ½ milk serving. This meal plan is approximately 60 g of carbohydrates per meal and 30 g of carbohydrates per snack.
Slide 18-

Examples of One Carbohydrate Choice Snacks 1 ounce granola bar 3 graham crackers with 1 tbsp. peanut butter 3 cups popped non-fat popcorn 6 animal crackers 1 small muffin A 3 inch cookie 1 medium apple, orange, pear 12-15 cherries or grapes ¼ cup dried fruit 1 cup soy milk ¾ to 1 cup yogurt ½ cup sugar free pudding
Slide 19-

Portion Control Is The Key To Managing Your Diabetes Which will have the greater effect on your blood sugar, 1 tsp of sugar or ½ cup potatoes?? Potatoes have 15 g of Carbohydrate, while 1 tsp. of sugar has only 4 g of carbohydrate. Therefore, potatoes have 3 times the effect on blood sugar than table sugar would.
Slide 20-

2008 ADA Recommendations for General Meal Planning for Persons with Diabetes Meal plan should include fruits, vegetables, legumes, low-fat dairy products, lean meats, and whole grains. You can eat sugar containing foods, but your meal plan will be adjusted. Monitor carbohydrate intake. Consume 25-35 grams of fiber. Avoid Skipping meals.
Slide 21-

More Recommendations Sugar alcohols and artificial sweeteners are safe. Limit saturated fat intake. Limit trans fat intake. Eat fish at least 2x’s per week. Moderate alcohol intake. Consume a meal plan that if low in fat, cholesterol, sodium, and calories Increase physical activity or exercise. Continuously monitor blood sugar levels. Check with physician for vitamins. Lose weight if you are told to.
Slide 22-

Alcohol Limit/control your intake of alcohol. Ask yourself the three questions to determine if you can drink. Is my diabetes under control? Does my doctor agree that I do not have any other problems that alcohol can affect? Do I know how alcohol can affect my diabetes and me?
