The type of food you eat is closely connected to the level of blood glucose in your body. If you make smart food choices, you will be able to manage your blood glucose level better.

There is no such thing as a Diabetic diet. A dietician can advise you on a diet plan that is right for you. A nutritionist or registered dietician can also teach you how to choose the best foods for meals and snacks.

Typically a diet that is designed for a Diabetic consists of 40% to 60% calories that come from carbohydrate food sources and 20% form protein with the remaining 30% coming from fat sources.

Doctors and researchers have determined recently that diabetics can consume some sugar as long as they are consuming a healthy, well-balanced diet. It is still important not to add sugar to the foods you eat.

You will still have to be careful about the amount of sugar you consume. Let your doctor guide you on how much sugar and when it is appropriate to add it to your daily diet plan.

Basically your diet will consist of 2 to 5 choices of carbohydrates, 1 choice of a protein and than the amount of fat determined by your doctor or dietician. Carbohydrates are fruits, vegetables, beans, dairy foods and also starchy foods like breads.

When eating canned fruits make sure that they are packed in their own juices or in water. Hidden carbohydrate sources are condiments such as nonfat mayonnaise, ketchup and Mustard. Proteins can be found in meat, poultry and fish, nonfat or reduced-fat dairy products like cheese and yogurt.

Fat sources are butter, margarine, lard and oils. Fat can also be found in dairy and meat.

Low Blood Sugar:

When your blood sugar is too low you may become confused, cranky, tired, shaky or sweaty. These may be symptoms of Hypoglycemia (low blood glucose). If you notice these symptoms check your blood glucose level with your meter and if your level is 70 or below drink fruit juice, or a regular glass of soda.

If you are very thirst, urinate more frequently than normal, or you have blurred vision. Check your blood glucose level with your meter and contact your doctor or if your doctor is unavailable contact a medical emergency center with the reading.

Food is a very important factor when it comes to managing your Diabetes. Understanding the role food plays in the blood glucose level will help you to be success at controlling your Diabetes.

Question:

I drank 16 ounces with 2 tsp of kosher salt. I’ve been having extremely watery Diarrhea for the past few hours. When can I expect this to stop?!

Answer:

What you did is basically a salt water flush - which is an oral enema - for lack of a better description. And, as just a point of advice, even though detoxing and cleanses can be very beneficial, it would be prudent to do them under the care of a natural health professional - they can carry risks. It’s a common misconception that just because something is ‘natural’ that it is safe.

Anyway, within 24 hours you SHOULD be over the effects, although you could still experience some nausea, so be careful what you eat - eat light - fruit juices and water are very good during flushes - especially water with a bit of Lemon.

In the future, have some aloe capsules on hand. They are a much safer way to deal with Constipation - and much much more gentle.

Hope this helps
Dee

Anyone diagnosed with Diabetes or those who live with and love a Diabetic should understand the basics of the disease. There are important things to know about the disease that may mean life or death to the individual who has Diabetes.

It is important to know about how eating certain foods can have an effect on your Diabetes, and how other factors can affect your blood sugar, how to check your blood sugar, and who should manage your Diabetes, what role your emotions have on your disease and the connection between your Diabetes and Heart Disease.

Certain subjects will become very important to you such as nutrition, weight loss, exercise and lifestyle.

Every newly diagnosed Diabetic will need to learn how to make wise food choices and how to plan meals that will lead to better Diabetic management.

Nutrition:

Individuals diagnosed with diabetes have the same basic nutritional requirements as everyone else. Nutrition is one factor that needs to be controlled when you are a Diabetic. You can no longer eat based on desire and in any amount you want.

Diabetics to remain healthy need to follow a well-balanced meal plan that includes correct amounts of certain foods that will manage your blood glucose level so that it is as close to normal (non-diabetes level) as possible.

Healthy food choices include eating lots of vegetables and fruits, eating non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, carrots, broccoli and green beans. Choosing whole grain foods instead of processed grain products. Brown rice and brown spaghetti instead of white. Adding dried beans and lentils to your meals and making sure that you have fish twice a week.

When making meat choices, lean meats are best and when eating turkey or chicken remove the skin. Choose non-fat dairy or non-fat yogurt and non-fat cheese. Liquid oils should be used in cooking instead of solid fats. Everyone should be more careful about portion sizes; especially those who are trying to Lose Weight.

Stay away from high calorie snack foods and desserts.

Weight Loss:

The sad fact is that 9 out of 10 individuals who have been recently diagnosed with diabetes are overweight. If you are Diabetic and are overweight, losing some weight can help you to better manage your diabetes.

When you decide to Lose Weight your first step should be to speak with your doctor. Your doctor can give you healthy guidelines to losing weight successfully.

Exercise:

We all should exercise on a daily basis because when we exercise we help our bodies to digest food better. Exercise is any activity that gets you up and moving.

Sometimes the toughest part of exercising is taking that first step.

There are different types of exercising: aerobic exercise, strength training, and flexibility exercises.

Walking is an excellent exercise for anyone because it improves Circulation and your mobility; it promotes weight loss and can even help you to reduce your Stress level.

Lifestyle:

Your lifestyle not only includes your work, home life and what you do for fun but it also includes those health habits you have acquired like if you smoke or drink, use recreational drugs etc. Your lifestyle includes your eating habits and your risks that you take such as if you drive a sports car or bungee jump.

A diabetic needs to consider their lifestyle and evaluate if anything about their lifestyle is detrimental to controlling their diabetes? If there are factors about their lifestyle that may hurt their changes for controlling their diabetes such as consuming alcohol or smoking they need to seriously consider avoiding or at least cutting down these habits if they want to remain in control of their diabetes.

Emotions have its ups and downs. It is normal for everyone to feel. But for a person affected by a bipolar disorder, these highs and lows can become very extreme and hinder daily activities. There are times that the situation also became dangerous.

A person cannot work because of feeling so depressed. Then the next day, this person feels great, filled with creativity and endless energy. However, some people can misinterpret such actions as being reckless and uncontrollable.

A bipolar disorder can be unpredictable and confusing. This medical condition is also chronic. Never feel embarrassed if you are affected with this type of disorder. Learning all about it is helpful to manage such medical illness successfully. 

A bipolar disorder affects the ability of a person to feel various moods in a normal range. Manic depression is another term for bipolar disorder. Bipolar is used to describe two extremes or poles. People affected by this serious medical condition have mood alterations ranging from an extremely low (depression) to an extremely high (mania).

The best picture to describe such condition is the globe. The globe is divided into the North and South Pole. The mania would be the North Pole and the depression would be the South Pole. If a person experiences the symptoms of either pole for a definite duration of time, then he or she is experiencing an episode. These episodes must be thoroughly discussed with a healthcare provider.

There are four kinds of episodes associated with bipolar disorder according to APA (American Psychiatric Association).

1.    Depression. Sometimes, a person can feel extremely sad for a prolong period of time. It is very impossible for him or her to eat or leave his or her bed. The things which he or she enjoys to do seem very difficult.

2.    Mania. This is the other pole of a bipolar disorder. It may begin with a high or good feeling. But after sometimes a person can feel very angry and irritable. Doing risky things is not impossible.

3.    Hypomania. Compared to mania, this type of episode is only mild. A person might feel very good thinking that more things are getting done. But after a while, his or her mood changes to a full-blown depression or mania.

4.    Mixed mood or mixed episode. The feelings of depression and mania can affect a person many times during the day.

These episodes can put a person at risk for committing suicide. Experiencing mania or depression for more than four episodes within a year is known as rapid-cycling. There are different symptoms for both poles of a bipolar disorder.

The mania symptoms include increased levels of energy, reduce needs for sleep, easily distracted, mind jumps, racing thoughts, more talkative, more confident, focus on doing things but accomplishes only little,  and more risky even if it means things are going to be bad.

The depression symptoms include feeling blue or sad, feeling down, losing interests on the things which a person is enjoying including sex, feeling guilty, feeling hopeless, feeling worthless, sleep too much or too little, changes in appetite or weight, feeling tired, feeling too little energy, feeling restless, concentration problems, decision-making problems, and thoughts of suicide or death.

Moreover, it is also vital to learn how mood swings are triggered. Emotions and events that happened in a life of a person can be the triggering factors. Sad, unpleasant, or happy events can make a person experiences either depressive or manic episodes.

Triggers or stressors include irregular schedule of sleep, misuse of drugs or alcohol, stopping medication, starting medications for depression or other herbal products, and having problems related to thyroid and other health condition.

Nevertheless, different people may experience different triggers. Some people also consider seasonal changes, illness, holidays, work problems, friends or family’s disagreements, marriage, starting a recent job, starting college, love one’s death as triggers.

Figuring out what triggers a person can help. Keeping a mood chart to record varying emotions can determine mood swing patterns.  This can be a tough task but provides many treatment possibilities.

A bipolar disorder is not more of a problem today. There are lots of treatments available. It is very important to talk to a healthcare provider to create a plan that will work best in stabilizing mood swings.
