1800 calorie type 2 diabetes diet
Research indicates that losing a small amount of weight, about 7-10% of your body weight can help to reduce your risk of developing diabetes. Doing so cannot only help to control blood sugars, but can also result in weight loss, a reduction in triglycerides (a measure of fat in the blood) and a decrease in risk for other cardiac risk factors. Some people with diabetes benefit from eating a low carbohydrate diet.
Being that diabetes is a disease in which sugar is not metabolized effectively, people with diabetes need to manage and control their carbohydrate intake. This three day meal plan was made for people looking to eat an 1800 calorie diet. Before searching for meals and meal plans, it is wise to find out how many calories and carbohydrates you need to reach both your weight and blood sugar goals. For some of you, the total amount of carbohydrates in this meal plan may seem like too much. Check to see how much your blood sugar has risen 2 hours after the start of your meal. If you have prediabetes and have been told to lose weight, a calorie and carbohydrate controlled diet can help to prevent and delay diabetes.
