By Dietician at 04/26/08 21:01

The diet plan we are going to have today is a bit special. There concerns people with diabetes. I personally made this plan for my father. Our family has an extensive history of diabetes. My late grannies died because of it. Fortunately I do not have it, or have not yet been detected. But since high school I do not use sugar, not too much carbo and do not usually eat sweets so I believed its very unlikely for me to have it. Anyways, here is the plan.

Breakfast
• Scrambled Eggs, fresh green garden leaves with Cheese w/ toast or French bread
Lunch
• Grilled Chicken, strawberries (oatmeal- optional)
Dinner
• Broiled Tenderloin (Beef) with steamed vegetables like carrots, corn, lettuce, peas and others.
Snack (in between meals)
• Fruits like apples, avocado, cashew nuts or some roasted almonds

This Plan is good for you if:

• Diabetes runs in your family.
• You can control your cravings for sweets and carbos.
• You want to learn portion control and healthy eating behaviors.

This plan is not good for you if:

• If you depend on your medications and do not care on what you eat.
• If you can't give up your fast food junkies.
• If you can't cook and would like food deliveries all the time.

Diet Summary This diet plan is specially made for diabetes patients. This program will help ensure that their sugar and carbohydrate intake is beyond the recommended for persons with diabetes, specially for diabetes type 2.

This is composed of easy to make recipes to help keep blood glucose under control. This program is nonetheless as tasty as the other foods you've been wanting to eat but is prohibited or limited and moderated.
