Some of my uncles and aunties got it too. What type of food maybe tea or something which do helps to reduce or improve her condition?


Thanks for your advises.

Only know dont eat cakes, biscuits etc. All trans fat and of no use to body for health purposes. Mooncakes etc, too much sugar, avoid at all costs. Fruits like durian, mango should be avoided. Banana has high sugar content but not sure if its good or bad for them.

hi, anyone knows where to get snacks for diabetics patient?

[Blitz]

low carb diet.

[yina]

less carbs and also meals in smaller portions.

sugar intake doesnt really affect blood glucose level. not directly anyway..

you can read up on low GI (glycemic index) foods as well.

[Blitz]

for a person with hyper insulin resistance, i think it does.
Besides if you're already at this stage you've got everything to gain and nothing to lose by cutting out your carb intake.

HI,
My mom-in-law, bro-in-law and next door neighbour all have diabetes too.
Back in USA, there is a cream called udder cream which is great for dry and cracked skin for the feet and hands and other parts of the body.
I just saw it in Guardian selling for S$8.90.
You may want to check out their website: [url=http://www.udderlysmooth.com] for more inof on the diabetic care

[briankarlo]

With diabetics, our skin hurts especially our feet and legs.

With high blood glucose, our body loses fluid.
With less fluid in our body, our skin become dry and itchy, causing us to scratch and make it sore.

Also, dry skin can crack. Cracks allow germs to enter and cause infection.
If your blood glucose is high, it feeds germs and makes infections worse.
You can get dry or cracked skin on your legs, feet, elbows, or any other place on your body.

Try Udderly Smooth Extra Care Cream which has ben around for 30 years...

My friend who is working as a nurse told my dad that Diabetic can be cured by surgery. It's called Metoblic surgery. Anyone heard about it?
She mentioned that a dr in Paragon often give forum for it. Not sure which Dr? Anyone know anything about it?
