Types of Diabetes, diabetes type 1 – diabetes type 2

Question: I know that diet in diabetes should be varied. However, I have five years restricting your diet to not gain weight, since leading a sedentary lifestyle. In grain units. it looked like this: breakfast-3 XE, 2nd breakfast-1 XE, XE-3 lunch, dinner-3 XE, bedtime 1HE. with no fat, only -2 slices of black bread a day, only meat in the soup, once a day, no cereals, rolls and sweets, except for yogurt and 1-2 vanilla cheese per day. Lot of vegetables. With this diet, I felt great, easy to transfer any heat, doing daily exercises. But each. SRI times. doctor telling me that I do not eat and that such a diet can damage the kidneys. Hemoglobin I declined. The beginning is a must-have become and cereals and meat. By HEH everything remained roughly as (+2-3 he). But even sedentary work and immobility. life, that's corrected to 4 kg. This significantly-now suffering from the heat in summer, more meteozavisimost, I feel is not as easy as before. A better way to return to the old diet, despite the reduced hemoglobin? At my height (156 cm), a weight (53 kg) is very noticeable.

Answer: First, your diet has not been glycoprivous: 11 XE – this is quite normal for a girl (assuming that you have correctly calculated the HEH and is not included in the carbohydrate-containing vegetables and meat products (only rissole chops and have a little carbohydrate). Secondly, you must understand that he and calories – not the same thing! main sources of calories – this fat (0 HEH). The flesh, too, no carbohydrates, and calories are . I would suggest to reduce the weight limit foods high in fat (see FAQ about the diet in diabetes and overweight, with type 1 diabetes). To prevent anemia consume enough ( "universal") of meat, but if confirmed, that iron deficiency anemia (low iron in the blood), in any case, you need a course of iron supplementation, and the lack of it usually occurs not because of lack of consumption, but due to constant losses (eg, heavy menstrual bleeding, stomach ulcer, etc.). But anemia are different (not only iron-), and therefore requires the establishment of its type and purpose of the treatment.

Weight Control

Question: Dear Oleg, Thanks for your reply, GV and sugar in a child (measured the fasting glucometer – 4,3) Just pediatrician can not understand why a child's large weight gain (800-1100-1300). But a question I have. During the pregnancy I put Gestational diabetes (after loading 100 g: 5,83-11,27-10,03 mmol). To put IGT impaired glucose tolerance, because the expense of a balanced diet sugar kept within normal limits. Before pregnancy, I strongly gaining weight (quit smoking + unhealthy diet), resulting in IIstepeni obesity (BMI 33). Previously, blood sugar stayed within 4 during pregnancy OK. 5,5-6, and now – 5.1 (regardless of whether I eat sugar and other carbohydrates, fast or not). I hoped that after birth the sugar back to normal (as before). Endocrinologist, cat. observed pregnancy, said that after all this mozhe "haunt" and fraught with SD. Question: 1. Could sugar to rise due to weight gain? (all other tests are normal) 2. how lose weight through breastfeeding, and whether it is possible now, without prejudice to the child (3 months).

Answer: 1. Yes, overweight – one of the major risk factors for gestational diabetes and type 2 diabetes (the disease have a common origin, and therefore increases the risk of gestational SD 2 diabetes in the future). 2. To reduce the weight to dieting with a moderate decrease in caloric value – it is possible and breastfeeding. General principles of the diet outlined in the FAQ section "Hormones" – "Obesity" – look. There will be more questions – write.
