I have recently been diagnosed with diabetes. What are some free websites to search for healthy foods, etc?
I’m looking for healthy menus, workout regiments, etc that do not cost to sign-up
Most can be controlled with diet unless you take insulin. Diet would be most anything you want in moderation. I have diabetes 2 and eat anything I want in moderation.. just watch the sugars and sugar producing foods. Use you meter before and a short time after you eat to see what the sugar lvl is like. Too high check what you are eating and eliminate the starchy food you eaten. watch you sugar intake on things like sodas and cool aid/ Chicken and fish ( fish in moderation on sea food) because I have a limited income I eat rice and pasta but in moderation, veggies and salads. Exercise do a normal work out. Check with your local diabetic council for more information.. your doctor can suggest thing and put you in contact with the council.. they can also set you up with a free meter but you need the doc to subscribe the lancets and test strips.. I would keep a ;log of what you eat and your sugar readings for the first 6 months or so to get a pattern set.. One thing its not the end of the world having diabetes just be smart in what you eat. several small meals are better than 3 large meals. everyone base line is different so don’t get too worried if you don’t match whats on the chart.
Posted in Diabetes Menu Sample
My favorite is by the American Diabetes Association at http://www.diabetes.org/nutrition-and-recipes/nutrition/overview.jsp
