SUPPLEMENTARY FOODS

By Mustafa KUZHANPublished 3 years ago 4 min read

Diabetes, the fact that the gland called the pancreas in the body does not produce enough insulin hormone or that the insulin hormone it produces cannot be used effectively also ends and has a lifelong nutrition. As a result, the person cannot use glucose, the sugar that passes into the blood from the food they take, and blood sugar rises (hyperglycemia).

It is converted into glucose to be used for energy by most of the foods that we eat, especially carbohydrates. Its window, an organ in the back of the stomach, produces a hormone called "insulin," which allows our muscles and other tissues to take glucose from the blood and use it as energy. Glucose, which passes into the blood with food, is secured by insulin hormones. Cells use glucose as fuel. If the glucose volume body is more than the fuel consumption, it is stored in the liver (sugar store = glycogen), in the adipose tissue.

A person without diabetes had a blood sugar level of 120 mg/dl in patients and not above 140 mg/dl in a state of satiety (two hours after starting to eat). Measurements of hunger or satiety indicate that diabetes is coming if blood glucose measurements are above these values.

It is determined whether a person has diabetes or not Clearance Blood Glucose (ACS) measurement or Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is performed. A measurement of 100-125 mg/dl is a sugar latent (pre-diabetic) signal. ACC measurement values of 126 mg/dl or more indicate the presence of diabetes.

There are two types of diabetes: TYPE 1 DIABETES and TYPE 2 DIABETES.

Type 1 diabetes is a retention that occurs as a result of complete cessation of insulin secretion and usually begins in childhood or early age. Type 2 diabetes, on the other hand, increases with care and age, which occurs as a result of becoming resistant to harmful insulin.

To prevent diabetes:

1. Eating a Regular and Healthy Diet

2. Doing Regular Physical Activity

3. Being at Normal Weight

4. Not Smoking

5. Stress Management

What foods should diabetics not take?

• Candy and sweets with sugar (jam, honey, molasses, chocolate, cookies, cakes and cakes)

• Butter, margarine, inner fat, cream, cream

• Salami, sausage, sausage, bacon

• Offal (liver, brain, spleen, tripe, etc.)

• Fried and roasted foods

• Prepared foods whose contents you do not know

Vitamins that strengthen body resistance;

• Vitamin A is found in the yolk of eggs, liver, and green leafy vegetables. Do not neglect.

• If you squeeze the juice while consuming vitamin C and leave it in the jug for an hour, it will not help.

• Cutting vegetables into many pieces, cooking them with the mouth open, washing them for hours causes vitamin loss.

• Vitamin E is found in foods such as dried legumes, oils, nuts, peanuts. Vitamin E protects the heart, helps to eliminate harmful components from the body.

• Selenium is abundant in seafood and animal foods.

• On sunny days, going out a little, taking a walk will help to get vitamin D.

• Fish is a source of Omega-3. Consuming grilled fish twice a week provides weight balance.

• Zinc found in meat and milk is an important mineral in growth, development, tissue repair and the immune system.

It can be taken from tablets or capsules. It is important not to exceed the limit.

It can reach nutritional supplements with food or on an empty stomach.

Also, supplementary nutrients should be used continuously and only after consultation with a doctor. Supplementary foods cannot replace nutrients from food and beverages and should be consumed in conjunction with a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Linked to personal preference and contours of maps for nutritious foods that reinforce brand choice. Many different brands offer supplementary foods on the market, and there are differences in quality, quantity, quality, and price between these brands.

You can recommend the brand that works best or create a healthy diet plan together with a dietitian. In addition, in brand surveillance, it is recommended to pay attention to whether the documents contain natural ingredients, whether they are approved by the FDA because the inspections have been audited and inspected.

The amount you need to eat during the day varies depending on the type of diabetes type, the medical loads of the episodes, your level of physical activity, and your blood sugar level at the time.

People with type 1 and type 2 diabetes who use insulin need to be fed six meals, including three main meals as breakfast, lunch and dinner, and three snacks before going to bed at night.

What is usually done is to eat immediately or 5 minutes after waiting half an hour after payment of incorrect insulin fees. Such mistakes cause blood sugar to ring after eating.

Another mistake made is not to make snacks because the feeling of the organs is not formed or to reduce the amount and type of food eaten in the snack. In a person who uses insulin, practices such as not making a snack, throwing away a snack or reducing the amount and type of food eaten cause blood sugar to fall. A fall in blood sugar below 50 mg/dl manifests as hyperglycemia.

People with type 2 diabetes need to be fed at intervals of two to three hours. By spreading out the foods that should be eaten in a day throughout the day, eating frequent and little food makes blood sugar rise less after a meal. Measures of the burden of renewed consumption at meals, eating in small meals prevents excess calorie intake and takes the control of opening both blood sugar and weight gain outside. It also reduces the elevation in blood extensions.

It should always be negotiated with the achievement of a healthy lifestyle, such as healthy eating, exercise and adequate sleep, as well as in relation to the use of supplementary nutrients.
