Patient's question:
Auntie is 44 years old this year. A few days ago, she felt unwell and went to the hospital for a health check-up, where she was diagnosed with diabetes. Auntie usually dislikes eating sweet things, especially high-sugar foods like cakes and desserts.Hello doctor, is this related to diabetes? Seeking clarification?
Doctor's answer:
Diabetic patients who consume these high-calorie foods or foods high in sugar will cause their blood sugar to rise more quickly. Given the current improved living conditions, there is no need to eat these foods, as the calories can be sufficiently supplied from regular meals. Diabetic patients should first control their diet, aiming for three meals a day, with each meal's staple food not being less than 100 grams. Fried foods should be avoided, and sweet potatoes, potatoes, and vermicelli should also be consumed in moderation.
