Are glycemic index diet and diabetic diet the same?

I was wondering since the glycemic index diet controls the sugar in your body, would diabetic cooking be the same? The reason why I ask, is because it is not as easy to get g.i diet cookbooks, but diabetic cookbooks are really easy to get and I also have a few diabetic cookbooks already and wanted to know if they are the same, because I was thinking that they are similar diets.

there are two books i recommend "the diabetic solution" and "the diabetic diet" both by dr. richard Bernstein. i want from an A1C 7.4 down to 5.7 side note: i’m not on medication.

Are fried bananas better for a diabetic diet?

A good friend of mine has type 2 diabetes, and I often hear him say that what he misses most are banana splits. I want to make him a diabetic safe split for Christmas and the bananas are the hard part since they are high in sugar and don’t exactly come in sugar free. But I’ve heard that fried bananas are much better for a diabetic diet then raw. Is this true?

Bananas are not the problem. Fruit is a recommended part of a diabetic diet.

The problem with a banana split is the usual overabundance of ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate syrup.

You can get sugar free ice cream (but - the carbohydrate count is not much less than standard ice cream since a lot of the carbs come from the milk portion); you can get sugar free chocolate syrup (again, however, the carb count will probably only be slightly less than real syrup); and whipped cream really does not contain much in the way of carbs.

Diabetics can eat everything that a non-diabetic can eat — they simply have to account for the carbs much more carefully. Does your friend exercise as part of his way of controlling blood sugar levels? Then have a small banana split, and 20 minutes later, go for a half hour walk.

Will it be beneficial for a non-diabetic to follow a diabetic diet.?

My sister has recently been diagnosed as a diabetic and has to take the shots. She is in her early 50’s. Since we are all overweight, I thought it is a good possibility we (me and other sisters) could be diabetic candidates. Therefore, I am thinking of joining my sister in following her diet.

AWESOME!

The diet for diabetics is also an excellent way to loose weight. The diet formula decreases your complex carbohydrate intake, but does not eliminate it. It’s really a model eating regimen that all people benefit from.

What a great way to show your sister support!

What is an example of a diet for a type 2 diabetic?

I have been counseled that I should be on the same diet as a type 2 diabetic because of having PCOS but have no idea what the diet is or should be! Please help :-)
Here’s the general rule of thumb I follow: Keep the carbs and sugars to a minimum. Eat lots of vegetables. Limit the meats to fish and chicken. Avoid beef and dairy. On the carbs you do eat, make sure they’re made with whole grains.

I recommend you join Weight Watchers. They have a diet for pregnant women and it’s sensible and most likely supported by your physician. Inquire and see what you learn.

Does anyone have an outline for the diet you follow after gastric bypass or a diabetic diet?


There is a wealth of resources for diabetic diets. The main thing you want to watch is the amount of Carbohydrates in food. The lower, the better. Oh, and watch out for liquid sweetner. It gives you the squirts.
