Hi, I have a question. I’m pre-diabetic and no interest in becoming insulin dependent like my father, grandfather and grandmother. But, some of the foods that you recommend are a no-go for IBS. Do you have any other suggestions or recommendations for me?? Also, rice is a HUGE part of my diet and cultures. I like mixed rice and eat that as well but I eat white rice the most. So is it going to be all about portions?? I literally sometimes eat rice for breakfast AND dinner. Soooooo…..
Do yourself a favor and do not follow her advice . Listen to Dr. David Unwin, a medical doctor in England . He is the only one I heard of who is humble enough to admit he made a mistake for 25 years trying to treat his diabetic patients following what he was taught in medical school but failed, he admitted that one of his patients thought him that what he's preaching now that low carb diets works for losing weight, get off diabetes medication , how not to become a diabetic. Find his videos or discard this comment it is all up to you .
Thanks for your response. I’ve been using the refrigerator trick and also making my rice with 1-3 brown to white. That way my stomach isn’t irritated, and I still have my dietary staple. Also I’ve noticed that eating certain foods for breakfast seems to help me have good stable glucose levels throughout the day. I’m very aware now that individual results vary massively in managing glucose. Some things seem to work better for me than my sister because of certain things she eats that I do not and vise-versa. I really do appreciate the videos because learning to manage blood sugar can be very daunting and overwhelming in the beginning. Learning what works individually is the most important thing that isn’t always discussed. No ONE thing works for everyone.
Hi Terah. I have type 2 diabetes but I'm "under"weight. I take Metformin 1000mg 2x daily. My endocrinologist told me to eat "at least" 1800 calories per day. He told me to avoid egg "yolks" (eat only egg whites), cheese, shell fish & animal fat. I'm frustrated with his diet instruction. You mentioned on your video that fat can also spike your blood sugar. So how am I ever going to "gain" weight? So frustrated & depressed! Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I'm in the same boat. Lost so much weight and can't seem to gain. I was never over weight but cutting out the carbs and sugar along with metformin really was not good. I'm now on Januvia but can't gain.😢 Hate it.
Thank you Dr Igudia for being the most trusted doctor among all, your professionalism was on a high standard, thank you for coming to help me out with my Type 2 Diabetes’s
Nice content but permit me to add a little............................. For individuals with diabetes, a balanced diet rich in nutrient-dense foods can help manage blood sugar levels and overall health. Here are some foods that are generally considered beneficial for diabetic individuals: Non-Starchy Vegetables: Broccoli, leafy greens, bell peppers, cauliflower, and other non-starchy vegetables are low in carbohydrates and calories but high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Lean Protein Sources: Chicken, turkey, fish, tofu, legumes, and low-fat dairy products provide essential protein without significantly affecting blood sugar levels. Whole Grains: Oats, quinoa, brown rice, and whole grain bread or pasta are high in fiber and can be included in moderation to help manage blood sugar levels. Healthy Fats: Avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil contain heart-healthy fats that can help with satiety and overall health. Fruits: Berries, apples, citrus fruits, and other low glycemic index fruits in moderate portions can be part of a balanced diet. Legumes: Beans, lentils, and chickpeas are high in fiber and protein while having a relatively low glycemic index. Dairy Products: Low-fat or non-fat dairy options like Greek yogurt or skim milk provide protein and calcium without excessive amounts of added sugars. Herbs and Spices: Flavoring foods with herbs and spices can add taste without extra salt or sugar. I recommend the book below for more insight: a.co/d/58gWabw
sorry about that, You can get a bouncy ball and play repeatedly on a single position and it'll help as some form of exercise. Also, try to eat whole foods, try not to overcook your vegetables, limit or avoid processed foods and sweetened beverages. These will help reduce your blood sugar levels
You don't need to eat zero carbs as a diabetic. You need calculated portions of low-moderate glycemic index index carbohydrate foods. Keto Diet is okay but so are carbs.
thanks for this easy to follow guide! you are the best
Very effective plan and this item

Should the plate method be used for both lunch and dinner?
screw the plate method. I don't count calories, I count carbs and try to stay as close to zero as possible.

I love your Chanel 😊🌷
1500-1800 calories quoted in is about 500 calories lower than usually suggested for the average person
Great info! How many meals should I consume per day?

Jeeze. 400? Go to zero carbs and adjust your diet to 70% fat 30% protein. Or not.
Check Dr. DAVID UNWIN
You can have carbs. Carbs are for energy. Too much is not good.
Carbs is sugar. Want to get well? Avoid, or at least keep carbs(all types) to a minimum!!
That’s not true. The human body does not need carb intake. You’ve been lied to.
This is to Much. Can we just have variety of meal plans. All this measuring and apps is a job on its own.
Please NO vegan !
Brown bread//brown rice has the same amount of carbs....diabetics should eat ZERO carbs....but not what this lady says...
How is a life without carbs possible
