ASK GINGER - I know what I’m not supposed to eat (sugary stuff, pizza, junk food), but what should I be eating? -AnonymousHowdy,Nutrition is a HUGE part of managing your diabetes. I think a lot of people would be surprised at how much easier it is to control their blood sugars better simp...
HI MY NAME IS MONICA ANDINO,
I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR JUST OVER 1 YEAR AND I HAVE A SON THAT IS ALL MOST 7 MOUNTHS OLD.
I JUST HAD THE GLUCOS TEST DONE ON FRIDAY AND I GOT MY REZOLTS TODAY AND THEY SAID THAT MY BLOOD SUGER WAS HIGHER THEN NOMAL AND I HAVE HAD HIPOGLOSEMA FOR OVER 7 YEARS NOW AND MY DR SAID HE WANTS ME TO STAY A WAY FROM CARB'S.
AND THEY SAID THAT WHEN IM IN MY EALY 20'S TO MID 20'S I WOULD END UP GETTING DIABETS.
SO I WAS WOUNDERING IF YOUR DR SAID TO SAY A WAY FROM CARB'S WHEN YOU WHERE AT THE BEGAING STAGES OF DIABETS.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
THANK YOU.
MONICA ANDINO
Hi Monica,
Avoiding carbs at any stage of diabetes is beneficial because carbs increase your blood sugar ... HOWEVER, avoiding carbohydrates is not going to prevent or slow the process of developing diabetes.
It sounds like you need to really meet with an Endocrinologist/Diabetes Educator and determine whether you're developing Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes!
