Diabetes is a curable disease. As a dietary disease, it demands a dietary treatment. The principles are outlined here. Video Rating: / 5
An international collaboration co-led by researchers at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute has made a discovery that could enable therapeutic insulins to be made more effective than they currently are.
The findings will help to improve treatments for diabetes, a disease that impacts the lives of millions of people worldwide.
Published in Nature Communications, the study reveals the first definitive 3D image of how insulin successfully interacts with its receptor, a ‘gatekeeper’ for transmitting information into cells, in a process that is crucial for instructing cells to lower blood sugar levels in the body.
Understanding exactly what this process looks like can inform the design of faster-acting and longer-lasting insulin therapies.

Twenty-six million people have it, and millions more are expected to get it. But the truth is most of us could avoid the predominant form of diabetes.
“There’s different classifications of diabetes. Most of the people in the United States that have diabetes have Type 2 diabetes. It used to be called adult onset diabetes and has been called non-insulin dependent diabetes but we more clearly call it Type 2,” says Sharon Tilbe, a certified diabetes coordinator with Lee Memorial Health System.
The less common form is Type 1 diabetes, which is naturally occurring. Type 1 is an autoimmune disorder, which used to be called juvenile diabetes since it’s most often diagnosed in children and young adults.
“The difference between the types of diabetes, Type 2 diabetes is the situation where the pancreas is no longer making any insulin at all,” says Tilbe.
Unlike Type 1, Type 2 develops slowly over time when the body stops managing insulin correctly.
“Type 2 diabetes is a combination of someone not using their insulin efficiently or not making enough of insulin,” says Tilbe.
A notable difference is that unlike Type 1, Type 2 diabetes can often be averted with some changes in lifestyle.
Stan Hillman learned the hard way after he was diagnosed with Type 2.
“I guess I brought it upon myself by eating the wrong stuff and never thinking that this would catch up with me. But it does, it catches up with anybody.”
Risk factors include excess body weight, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, low activity, metabolic syndrome and age.
The wake up call made Stan revaluate his lifestyle.
“Diet and exercise those are things that are going to make it go for the long run. I stay away from sweets totally.”
Left untreated, either type can lead to serious complications like cardiovascular disease and stroke. Diabetes educators are available through Lee Health Solutions to help you take control of your life.

Let’s face it. One of the main problems those of us with diabetes have is our hunger and trying to find those in between meal snacks that are satisfying and taste good while also helping us maintain our blood sugar.
When it comes to snacks, or any food for that matter, I always look at the Glycemic Load. There are those who will tell you that the Glycemic Index is what matters, but the glycemic index doesn’t really give you a complete understanding of what a particular food will do to your blood sugar. It simply gives you a number based on 50 carbs of a specific food. The glycemic load takes into account what type of carb we are dealing with and how it truly affects your blood sugar postprandial.
I say this so that if you see a food on my list of best snacks and on another “experts” list it is on a list of worst snacks, you will know why. I will give you both the GI and GL of each food on this list. I also do not put my lists in any type of order. So here we go:
1. Popcorn. This is a food you will probably see on some worst snacks list because the GI is a medium 55. But the glycemic load of popcorn is a very low 2.8. In its unprocessed form, popcorn is considered a significant source of whole-grain fiber. I love popcorn for……..breakfast! Yes, popcorn with a little sucrose and 2% milk is a wonderful cereal. You may think I am crazy, fair enough, but try it. It truly is a great snack for anytime. Not just when watching a movie. A small microwave bag is the perfect size for a good snack.
2. Greek Yogurt. Greek Yogurt is rich in calcium, high in protein and probiotics. There are few foods healthier than Greek yogurt. They do have some carbs, but they aren’t significant. Greek only has about 4 grams of sugar per 6 ounce serving. Greek yogurt contains significant amounts of potassium, calcium and magnesium, which is shown to improve blood pressure. Calcium, phosphorous and magnesium are important in bone health also. The GI of Greek yogurt is 11, the GL is zero. Put some strawberries and walnuts in a cup of Greek yogurt and you are going to thank me later!
3. Walnuts. Speaking of walnuts. I am convinced walnuts are the overall best food for you. I know they are expensive, that’s why when I can find them on sale or buy them in bulk, I will jump at the chance. Stored properly they can last a while. Walnuts have a GI and GL of zero meaning that they have no significant effect on raising blood sugar, they are extremely heart healthy and they also contain copper, manganese, vitamin B1 and vitamin B6. Plus they are super rich in omega 3 fatty acids.
4. Strawberries/Blueberries. Strawberries –A great alternative to those with a sweet tooth is strawberries. They are sweet, low in calories and make a great snack. Several human studies have established that people who eat plenty of berries, such as strawberries and blueberries, have a lower risk of both diabetes, heart attacks and dementia. Studies have also linked the high vitamin C content of strawberries to a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. One cup of fresh strawberries provides 160 percent of your daily need of vitamin C. Wanna really good snack? Blend fresh or frozen strawberries and/or blueberries into a smoothie. Both strawberries and blueberries have a low GI in the low 40’s as an average. They have an average GL of 4.
5. Peanut butter. Has anyone ever told you that someone with diabetes shouldn’t eat peanut butter? Tell them they are nuts. Peanut butter has a glycemic index of 14 and a glycemic load of 6. This low ranking means peanut butter helps stabilize blood sugar and insulin levels. Yes, they have a lot of calories and you will see several carbs on the label. But a tablespoon full of peanut butter is an amazing snack to fill you up. Peanut butter is is very low in Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Niacin and Manganese.
6. Apples. I know, another fruit, but a small apple (about the size of a tennis ball) delivers 77 calories, 21 grams of carbohydrate and 4 grams of fiber. It’s also a good source of vitamin C and has a smattering of other vitamins and minerals. The main benefit of an apple is the richness they possess in soluble fiber. This fiber keeps you full and slows down the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream helping regulate blood glucose levels. Apples have a GI of 39 and a GL of 4
7. A dark chocolate bar.
8. Boiled eggs.
9. Sting cheese.
10. I may get laughed off youtube for this one. But #10 is peanut M&Ms. Video Rating: / 5
Ellen Seely, MD, Director of Clinical Research in the Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes and Hypertension at Brigham and Women’s Hospital discusses the health risks associated with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) during and after pregnancy. Dr. Seely also describes Balance After Baby, a web-based program designed to educate women on eating healthfully and increasing their physical activity, with the goal of helping them lose their pregnancy weight within a year of giving birth.
GDM is a type of diabetes that occurs only in pregnancy. It comes on in the second half of pregnancy and it goes away after delivery. In the US it’s estimated that five percent of all pregnancies are complicated by GDM. The rates of GDM are higher in Hispanic and non-white populations, ranging from ten to 20 percent of all pregnancies.
Obesity is one of the main risk factors for GDM. In the United States, most health centers screen all women for gestational diabetes because obesity is becoming so common in the overall population.
Gestational diabetes can impact the health of the mother and the fetus, as well as the newborn. Women with GDM have an increased risk of preeclampsia, which is a type of high blood pressure that develops during pregnancy. Preeclampsia is a serious condition that can lead to early delivery. Women who have gestational diabetes may also have larger babies, increasing their risk of cesarean section.
While GDM goes away after pregnancy, the health risks persist. Research has found that 50 to 70 percent of women who have gestational diabetes may develop Type 2 diabetes later in life. Research has also found that babies born to mothers with GDM, have a higher birth weight and may become obese during adolescence, increasing their risk of developing diabetes and other conditions such as high blood pressure.
The Pregnancy and Diabetes Program at Brigham and Women’s Hospital offers multidisciplinary care to women with GDM. The program includes a high risk obstetrician, two diabetes specialists, a nutritionist, and a nurse practitioner who is certified in diabetes education. The first approach to treatment is to control blood glucose levels with healthy eating and physical activity. Lifestyle changes, healthy eating and physical activity, are effective in controlling blood glucose levels about 75 percent of women with GDM. If the lifestyle changes don’t work, insulin therapy is started to control a mother’s blood sugar for the rest of her pregnancy.

The Diabetes Breakthrough Your Doctor Won’t Tell You About
Hi
Shocking new scientific research uncovered how to treat the root cause of diabetes. Doctors at the International Council for Truth in Medicine have perfected these diabetes treatment methods:
In 16 days, patients insulin dosages were reduced by over 57%
A few weeks later, 96% of patients were able to stop ALL diabetes drugs and injections.
Blood sugar normalized, insulin sensitivity increased and neuropathy pain went away.
They’ve already helped over 17,542 type 2 diabetics end the need for prescription drugs, insulin injections and blood sugar monitoring.
But you won’t hear about this breakthrough from your doctor.

7 Great Low Carb Breads For Diabetics
Eating a diabetes-friendly diet that doesn’t ban bread altogether can be tricky! But more and more, the food industry is coming out with better and better options around low carb breads.
1. Joseph’s High Fiber Plus Pita Bread Pockets
These are 22 grams of total carbohydrates with 9 grams of dietary fiber, which brings you to a total of 13 grams of carbohydrates that will actually be digested and broken down into glucose!
2. Ezekiel Flax Sprouted Whole Grain Bread
This bread is packed with goodness, and will definitely give you far more than the average slice of overly processed white bread or whole wheat bread. With 14 total carbohydrates per slice, and 4 grams of fiber, you’ll get 100 grams of calories per slice.
3. Udi’s Gluten-Free Millet-Chia Bread
Usually gluten free bread is twice as “carby” as normal breads. Two slices of Udi’s white sandwich bread only has 24 grams of carbohydrates and 5 grams of fiber, which leaves you with 19 grams of carbohydrates for 2 slices.
4. BFree Food’s Gluten-Free Sandwich Bread
This bread isn’t as thick and fluffy as normal sandwich bread… instead it’s thinner, a bit more airy and very flavorful. You can get it in Brown Seeded or Soft White variations. It’s not the lowest carb of all the breads here by any means, with 8 grams of carbs after subtracting the fiber, but for a gluten-free option, it’s pretty darn good! 16 grams of carbs in a gluten-free sandwich.
5. Sara Lee 45 Calories & Delightful 100% Multi-Grain
While this choice is probably the lowest in terms of quality nutrition and ingredients, it is the lowest in calories and probably the most similar to your average piece of traditional toast. 2 slices will give you 18 total grams of carbohydrate and 5 grams of fiber, leaving you with 13 grams total.
6. Great Low-Carb Bread Company
Delicious! Soft and flavorful! These breads are super low carb with barely 1-3 grams of carbohydrate after subtracting the dietary fiber… even in the bagels! Hamburger buns, white bread, pumpernickle, a variety of bagels, and more.
7. ThinSlim Breads
This company comes with a variety of flavors (including cinnamon, rye, and honey) and boasts a mere 1 gram of carbohydrate (and 50 calories) per slice in basically every sliced bread option. They also have a variety of other low-carb products besides just straight breads, like cookies, muffins, pizzas, and more!
