The most important point in treating diabetes is to control blood sugar, and after meals is when a person’s blood sugar is most likely to rise, so diet control plays a pivotal role in treating diabetes. For diabetics, many people know that they should not eat sugar because after eating foods with high sugar content, their blood sugar will rise very quickly, leading to uncontrolled blood sugar. But in addition to foods with high sugar content, doctors will also instruct diabetics that foods like doughnuts and japonica rice should also not be eaten, and why is that? The dietary control of diabetes is not only to limit the amount of food eaten and prevent the rise of blood sugar due to excessive energy intake, but also to avoid eating foods with high glycemic index, most of which are high in sugar. Like those foods with high sugar content, we will be digested soon after eating them, and the gastrointestinal tract is also very efficient in absorbing their energy, so that the glucose sugar content in the blood increases steeply, and the blood sugar of diabetic patients is thus out of control. At the same time, these types of foods are often also not easy to produce a sense of satiety, with the role of promoting appetite, is also one of the reasons for the loss of blood sugar. The opposite is true for those with a low glycemic index. The glycemic index of a food should not be judged only by its sweetness, but by the difficulty of digesting its main components, etc. A comprehensive judgment should be made. For example, although lactose is sweeter than white rice, the glycemic index is higher than lactose because white rice is mainly composed of carbohydrates, which are easily digested and absorbed and broken down into glucose. So diabetics should not judge whether a food is suitable for them from past experience alone, and before, I did not understand the meaning of the contradictory phrase “pain and pleasure”, until I recognized the same thing in major movies and TV dramas and various scientific publicity materials: white powder, intake will make people happy, may be addictive, excessive intake is harmful to the human body. Oh, is this not the legendary drugs? No, today is to say that every household has a “drug” – sugar, the trap that makes people painful and happy. I don’t know if you’ve ever tried to eat dessert and drink milk tea to relieve stress when you’re depressed, but in today’s fast-paced society, the intake of desserts has become a daily habit for many people, especially Coca-Cola, which is flirted with as “fatty happy water” and has been standing in the “drug” world for decades. Excessive sugar intake is followed by obesity and diabetes. These two diseases often seem to co-exist in the current global data, and the proportion of adults suffering from diabetes in China is 10.6%, which is already more than 100 million people, and 65% of the many people with diabetes are overweight or obese. Diabetes can cause multi-system damage in the later stages, such as eye, kidney, nerve, vascular and other chronic lesions, while for the treatment of diabetes, the prevailing medical treatment with drugs can only slow down the onset of the disease, but not cure the disease. Most diabetic patients will face various complications in the advanced stage. Weight loss surgery for diabetes was first discovered by chance in 1982, and after decades of clinical experience and surgical verification, it was confirmed that weight loss surgery is an effective treatment for diabetes. However, it should be noted that bariatric surgery for diabetes is only an option for most patients with type 2 diabetes caused by severe obesity, and if insulin function is not yet completely absent. Of course, the best attitude towards the disease is not treatment, but prevention. Sugar is closely related to our life, we need to strictly control the intake, refuse to high sugar diet, to avoid themselves into this “sweet trap” inside, then no worries.
