Diabetes

Picture

​Healthy eating is an important part of the diabetic diet. 
​The body works best when it is fed plenty from the healthy food groups
and by minimising the “extras” ensures we reduce our risk of poor health.

Choosing low glycemic index foods can help prevent getting too much sugar in the blood at once.  However to achieve a good even blood sugar level across the whole day we need to ensure that our pattern of carbohydrate intake across the day is appropriate and even. 
​

Too much carbohydrate at breakfast and not enough in the evening is a common pattern resulting in poor blood sugar control. 
A dietitian is needed to show you how you can modify your diet to regulate your carb intake across the day resulting in the best blood sugar levels you can through dietary change. 
​

Learn how to count your carbs or let Dr Barnes do it for you – it could make all the difference.
