Will the 'REAL DIABETIC DIET' please stand up, Confusion In The Detail

"Why do I find that some of the "Top 10 Foods that Diabetics should not eat" are found in many "Diabetic Recipes" ---that are published for Diabetics?

Only our most successful diabetic members ask questions like this one. These walking success stories, who are watching everything, and are well on their way to totally "Defeating Diabetes Naturally" are still exploring for every advantage.

While no answer is simple or short, here are some thoughts on why we are seeing this discrepancy.

The answer is about the intensity of the situation of each Diabetic person and the diet program that is needed for that situation.

To be overly simple, let's divide a group of type 2 diabetics into Three (3) basic categories, and we talk about each. And for simplicity, we will limit the discussion to concerns about Blood Sugar and Weight (BMI, Body Mass Index.)

"A Severe Diabetic Diet"
For People who are deep into displaying more serious symptoms (Let's say that this group might have very high BS readings, they might have considerable excess pounds they might lose and there is a profound lack of exercise in their program.
� Clearly the list of foods provided by a dietitian will probably be far more restrictive.

"A Strong Diabetic Diet"
For People who's medical advisors have labeled them as adult onslaught type 2 diabetics and are managing their situation with drugs, exercise and a diabetic diet. Typically they might have a fair amount of excess weight to lose, and maybe lacking a strong exercise program.
� Again clearly the list of foods provided by a dietitian will probably be restrictive, but will invite more foods into the mix in limited amounts.

"A Strong Maintenance Diabetic Diet" This might be looked at as a "Life Style Situation"
For People whose medical advisors might have labeled them as Pre-diabetic or people who have been successful at regaining control of their lives and have lowered their readings through a program of Life Style Management including a healthy Diabetic diet, weight management and nutrition.
� For this group, what they eat is still critical but the list of foods provided by a dietitian could be far more open to a much greater mix, yet still carefully managing the amounts of these additional healthy and nutritious foods.

Diabetics, Get a Grip on This
One of your best supporters might be your Registered Dietitian. We at ProvenResultsHealth always suggest that you find a qualified dietitian who has successful experience with diabetics, and work with this person. And add natural healthy supplements to your routine.

Here are 10 basic, familiar dieting tips that will help you reach your diabetic weight loss goals. Don't froget the baxics:

1. Drink Water. Eight 8-ounce glasses of water will hydrate you and suppress your appetite.
2. Eat smaller portions. Avoid 'super-sizing' and 'extra large' portions. Split your meal in half.
3. Eat 4-5 mini-meals per day. You'll reduce 'spikes' in your system
4. Big Meal in the Morning. If you need to have 1 big meal in the day, have it for breakfast to give yourself plenty of time to burn it off.
5. Set Realistic and Healthy Goals. 1-2 pounds of weight loss per week is doctor recommended. Avoid 'crash' diets.
6. Bake, roast or broil your food. Avoid frying foods.
7. Limit Grocery Store Time. The more time you spend at the supermarket, the more you'll buy and consume.
8. Weigh Weekly. Weigh yourself on a weekly basis to avoid temporary fluctuations that can discourage you.
9. Chew Your Food. Chew it carefully. Avoid gulping or swallowing half eaten food.
10. Eat to live, not live to eat. Embracing this philosophy can change your life
