If you have diabetes sometimes, when you eat is as important as what you eat. Maintaining a constant flow of food in your system, without causing high blood sugar can be difficult to do. But once you know what works for you, you will have more flexibility and better control of diabetes.
It is recommended that diabetics have a lot of small meals throughout the day, or three main meals and three snacks in between them. A typical day might look like this:
* The Rise and Breakfast
* Snack
* Lunch
* Mid-afternoon snack
* Dinner
* Bedtime snack
The time between each meal or snack there should be two to three hours. This choice will depend on what you eat a meal before, how active you are and whatever. If you feel hungry or dizzy, and you usually do not eat him for 30 minutes – do not wait. Check your blood sugar levels and move up the food. Time may be necessary for you to wait 30 minutes may be the time required for blood sugar to give a dangerous low.
The only time you want to wait for a longer period of time between dinner and sleep for your snack. In most cases the biggest eating day, dinner, and you do not have the strength for a long period of time. Another reason to wait any longer, is to ensure that there is enough food in your system before you go to bed, finally, you all night without blood sugar dropped too low.
If there are times in a day is too much for you, think there are fewer resources and smaller areas. Eating this way (less often) to facilitate your body to regulate blood glucose levels.
