Mediterranean, vegan, vegetarian and low carb eati

Mediterranean, vegan, vegetarian and low carb eating patterns can help you lower your blood sugar. No one way is superior to the other - the main determinant of superiority is what works for you and what you can stick with long-term.

Remember, constantly changing eating patterns can make hormonal imbalances and inflammation worse, keeping your blood sugars elevated. Whichever eating style you choose, ensure you always pair proteins and fats with carbs and eat appropriate portions.

🗣 I would like to know: Do you follow a specific eating pattern or do you just eat what you enjoy?

The types of fat you eat regularly contribute to y

The types of fat you eat regularly contribute to your overall health. It is crucial to eat unsaturated fats more often than saturated fats because saturated fats can raise LDL (bad) cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of cardiovascular especially in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

However, many ethnic cuisines (Indian, Nigerian, Ghanian, Caribbean e.t.c) require saturated fats. You can still eat these fats as long as you control your portions, use them sparingly and consume them as part of a healthy, balanced diet.

🗣Which of these fats do you use most often - 🙋🏾‍♀️ I use olive, coconut & palm oil.

Cereal grains such as rice, wheat, oats, barley, r

Cereal grains such as rice, wheat, oats, barley, rye and their products (bead, pasta, breakfast cereal and flour) are the most dense sources of carbohydrates in our diet. These foods have the most impact on your blood sugar levels. So, the type and the way you eat them matter, especially with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes.

Tip: For blood sugar control, choose slow-digesting grains - these are usually unrefined or minimally processed (examples in post above). Remember to watch your portion size and always pair with proteins and fats (and vegetables) to prevent blood sugar spikes and increase the nutrient density of your meals.

What is your favourite carbohydrate? (Basmati rice is my fave!😋)

I've signed up to take one million steps over 3 months and to raise money for Diabetes UK. I would be so grateful if you could sponsor me! Diabetes UK fund critical research, which has led to life-changing discoveries – like the first insulin pen and programmes to put type 2 diabetes into remission:

Do you hate exercising? Here’s how to start loving and doing it consistently!

Exercise has many incredible benefits for preventing and managing type 2 diabetes. It can increase insulin sensitivity, lower blood glucose, increase good cholesterol levels and improve cardiovascular health.

Unfortunately, many people find it challenging to stick with a regular exercise routine. I did, too, until I found an exercise that fits all three criteria mentioned above.

✨If you want to make exercise a daily part of your routine, you need to start with something to which you’ll have the least resistance and objections.

For me, that exercise is WALKING! It is free, I love it and don’t need willpower to do it consistently.

🗣 Share in the comments the exercise that fits the three criteria above for you? I’d love to know.
