General Diabetes Dieting Tips

General dieting plays an important role especially for diabetics using insulin. With type one diabetics, a skipped meal may lead to a considerable low blood sugar condition called hypoglycemia. Also a bad habit to have is eating sugary foods such as sweets or fruit which hit the bloodstream almost immediately. Avoid cakes, desserts, jam, pies etc. Sugar can help to advance a condition like diabetes. Even if you are taking insulin and you just take a little more insulin to make up for eating a sugary item, eating processed carbohydrates like pies or cakes will fill you up with worthless calories and keep you from eating nutrient filled foods that your body requires to stay healthy.
