Diabetes Can Be Cured By Following This Indian Diet Plan

Today I am going to be writing on a very interesting topic and a very common disease among Indians, DIABETES. Diabetes is a very common disorder and is of many types commonly known as type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. We plan to share Diabetes Diet For Indians.

To know more about how our environment is one of the reasons for causing diabetes.. check this link here… Type 1 diabetes is due to the decreased production of insulin by the organ pancreas also known as juvenile diabetes, and type 2 diabetes is due to the failure of the cells to respond to insulin also known as adult diabetes. Know all about insulin here…

There is also a third type of diabetes which most women face during their pregnancy known as GESTATIONAL DIABETES, which is accompanied with high blood sugar levels under the influence of hormones secreted during pregnancy. The blood sugar levels usually come back to their normal after the delivery of the baby.

Everyone knows what diabetes is and that it is related to the hormone insulin, but very few know how to maintain or prevent this disease and what exactly is the cause of this disease. There are many causes for the onset of type 2 diabetes such as obesity, poor eating habits, lack of exercise, etc. First of all let me give you all the good news, type 2 diabetes can be prevented and controlled with a good diet and a healthy lifestyle!! So today this article is going to be based on health tips and foods for a diabetic person.

The main principle of controlling diabetes is through controlling the blood sugar levels which can be achieved if the right kind and amount of food is consumed. The Glycemic index of food plays a very important role in this. A high glycemic food is one that increases the blood sugar level rapidly such as white sugar, Maida, white rice, fruit juices, potato, sweets, bread, etc. these foods are rapidly digested and absorbed by the body and increase the blood sugar. On the other hand, low glycemic index foods are the ones that release sugar in the blood slowly and therefore lead to better insulin response. These foods are wheat Rotis, multigrain bread, ragi, oats, buckwheat, vegetables, apple, walnuts, dals, whole fruits, chicken, eggs, etc.

Diabetes can be cured by more consumption of low glycemic index foods as in this way insulin response better. Consider taking foods that are wealthy in fiber to control your diabetes and to lower the blood sugar level.

 Below is a sample diet that diabetics can follow.
