Blending, A Diabetic Adaptation

Blending, A Diabetic Adaptation

Diluting High Glycemic Food

When you eat a fruit, they are of course healthful for the ordinary person but are a problem food for a diabetic because they digest into high blood sugar (BG) fast and raise blood glucose levels very quickly.

Therefore carefully eat fruit in small amounts with "blending".

Blending, means eating at the same time as something with high fiber, (or fat) or with meat which of course is slow digesting.

Example, would be very small amount of orange juice with at least a teaspoon of Pysillium (bulk fiber like Metamucil - we recommend other sources of Pysillium since Metamucil contains sugar).

This "blended" together with fiber etc slows absorption and cuts down the sugar peaks. Foods that digest to high sugar quickly are called "high glycemic".

Example, French Fried potatoes, Watermelon, Orange Juice etc. We suggest watch what is high glycemic and possibly avoiding them or eating in very tiny portions, such as 5 grapes.

It is very hard to adjust to the idea that even though you know this is very healthful food for a non diabetic, it still needs to be avoided by a diabetic. Instead you become well experienced at what you can handle without raising your BG to high levels, (learn what works by monitoring results with your finger prick test meter) so eliminate FRUIT INITIALLY.
More on Blending

We developed a blending system using a former large cinnamon shaker container, (empty cinnamon into a former now useless sugar bowl)

Fill this shaker with a high fiber mixture, usually mostly "millers wheat bran". See our various mixture formulas elsewhere and cautions.

These very inexpensive (a buck or two a months worth) fiber additives will cut your high sugar peaks which is the name of the game in learning to "control" your diabetes. . Adding even a half teaspoon helps almost anything and will likely cut the BG effect (SLOW DIGESTION almost 20%).

So what you have is a method to help lower a peak, because you were stuck and having to eat something you should not have that will put your BG up to a potential damaging level.

You often encounter this type of unknown food while traveling and you have no way to determine what all was in what you are about to or just ate, or at friend's house and they are serving something questionable, add fiber to it, right after , and/or eat a lot of meat with it, right before or right after.
This offends no one, and you just explain it is a diabetic help.

Use your eat-slow technique and eat sparingly, no gorging, and eat something every couple of hours.

Next method of compensating for eating something questionable is immediately following, (or even just before) (empties sugar out of muscles and makes room for new) going for a 15 minute work out, walk at least, or other exercise. This can usually lower your BG about 20 points and take you out of the damage zone, perhaps, or at least help.

This is NOT a method to allow or excuse you to eat the way or what you always ate before becoming aware of your diabetes.
