The 5 best breakfasts for diabetics you know what they are in this video I brought the nutritionist Isadora who will help us and you always ask you comment a lot but as I am not a nutritionist I am an endocrinologist specialist in diabetes but Isadora will contribute to this video so João, this is very common, right, in the office, diabetic patients or those who are in the pre-diabetes season have these doubts about what they can eat in the morning, what are the best foods and how can we combine these foods and I called here five delicious combinations that can really help us control blood sugar so for those who are struggling to try to keep their blood sugar low these options are highly recommended number one is the popular fruit vitamin also known as milkshake So we are going to add it to the milk being whole without skimmed or skimmed a portion of fruit I recommend avocado so avocado is a fruit that has little amount of carbohydrates and it has good fats it is a fruit that has a little calories like that, right If you compare it with another type of fruit for example a strawberry that could also be added to this smoothie but we can still use avocado with milk and I suggest putting ice in the blender that gives volume to overlap it will look like a shake it is a smoothie, and why coffee is the morning so important? Because it happens in the morning, it is the elevation of some hormones such as cortisol, growth hormone, adrenaline glucagon itself also increases in the morning, this naturally, physiologically And also the liver sugar, especially in those patients who are already developing resistance to this. they are at the pre-diabetes level and also in diabetics that's why you often don't eat anything during the night it's not agreed at dawn and you wake up you have high blood glucose you have high blood sugar and what would your blood sugar be high a blood glucose value for those who do not have diabetes ideal would be up to 99 for those who are diabetic then this will change a little a value up to 130 would be good and often patients say ah I just have this increased glucose here the blood glucose actually increased of 140 and then during the day the Glycemia is normal I do the control and everything is fine we already know that only in the morning the increased Glycemia is already a risk factor for having a heart attack to have a stroke it increases the cardiovascular risk so it is a lot It's important that you take care of this meal precisely to improve your metabolism and also improve your blood sugar levels even more during the day .
what eating an alternative is not fasting, but looking for the best alternatives looking for a professional who will then direct you to the best options within your reality, right, what you like to consume the one on the list that I bring He is well known to the most people like scrambled eggs, right, so the egg is a food that has a good source of protein, you know, and it could be added for us to give that creaminess when stirring the egg in the frying pan a tablespoon of curd a spoonful of ricotta cream soup the famous cottage then gives that creaminess there with scrambled egg and consume it together with the famous little black coffee Remembering that this black coffee should not be sweetened with sugar regardless of the type of sugar sugar is sugar and it will stir the in the same way if it is white if it is chewed if it is denerated it is sugar so for diabetics who feel the need to sweeten this black coffee that they use sweeteners the famous sweeteners in this question of the type of Sugar because there are some types that are famous for being good In fact, the glycemic index and the glycemic load are very similar between the sugars, they have some differences in minerals but no one will look for it, an issue that also helps I only drink black coffee I don't use sugar I don't use sweetener and I see that many people what they can't do is remove the sugar because you end up having one it's difficult even if you're used to drinking coffee with sugar from one hour to the next so the tip here is to wean off the sugar gradually so if you put it there a spoon until you put 75% then it goes to half it can be in a matter of three four weeks and you will see that after you remove the sugar or even remove the sweetener you cannot take it anymore this happened to me If someone had been watching if it was yours if you also put it here in the comments, also put it here if you drink coffee Every day I talk a lot about coffee here on the channel, you already know the benefits So it's worth asking this question a lot, right about sugar, as you said some sugars because they don't go through the refining process, you know, they end up keeping some nutrients but if I want to give you selenium magnesium like that I'm not going to use sugar as a source, I took three four kilos of sugar that's it, we could even mess up famous pink salt, right that people they use it because they would have more benefits except that salt and sugar will never be a source of micronutrients, vitamins, minerals anyway and thinking about that, talking about micronutrients again another idea also bringing a food rich in micronutrients our third option would be a slice of papaya with powdered milk or powdered coconut milk Who has never tried this combination I recommend it too much I consume it in the morning I'm passionate I learned it from a patient and I didn't let go so it's a fruit a little like the Joker and also a low amount of carbohydrates Remembering that it is always interesting for us to bring a protein source for our breakfast and powdered milk. lactose could use this powdered coconut milk version or if you are vegan you could also go for powdered coconut milk we could associate it with our traditional little black coffee that we just talked about here without the sugar or go to a part there with a little coffee with milk who likes to make half and half or even use milk and soluble coffee important that also talked about the amount of carbohydrates because I see a lot that diabetics end up very focused on the glycemic index and forget about glycemic load is the load of being an amount of sugar that is true carbohydrates that are in the meal is just as important as the glycemic index is what is the index when you eat and digest it is how much that food will increase your blood sugar and if it's a high glycemic index, you know, there's a blood sugar spike, you cut it until you produce more insulin, it's going to make an insulin spike . how much is the glycemic load how much sugar does it have because if you choose healthy food, for example, do an overload of this element, there will be a lot of carbohydrates.
that is in each portion and also in the glycemic index that also has options to reduce the glycemic index of foods, such as adding chia flaxseed If you take a fruit, for example, put chia that I like a lot, it will end up decreasing the glycemic index but the glycemic load will not it's going to be changed from the fruit on top it's just the glycemic index and the fourth option suggests talking about chia and flaxseed and it's just going to bring chia linseed here this issue that we were talking about, right about the glycemic index is nothing more than contextualize the consumption of that carbohydrate because you can use a food that maybe has a slightly higher amount, anyway, but if you add other foods that are nutritionally different, it has a different nutritional composition, we wouldn’t have this stimulus in insulin, as if it were consumed in a way isolated the fourth option, we are going to use chia and we are going to use this one, yes, it can be bankrupt flaxseed flour, it would even be a yogurt, preferably natural, whole or skimmed, again it depends on your objective if you have to lose weight or gain weight or maintaining your weight and adding a fruit with strawberry would be an idea and we use chia or flaxseed here and I always advise you to bring two chestnuts together, two walnuts, the famous julia walnuts that, just like avocado They have good fat, you know, they are good for us, there is also a myth that diabetics cannot consume some foods, for example bread Ah, Diabetes It is true that diabetics cannot consume bread, they cannot consume bananas, diabetics cannot consume pineapple watermelon people ask a lot about this is it true or is it a lie so again we have to put it in context but in general it is a myth, leave the bun there it can exist preferably right in fact it should be a wholemeal bread and when we talk about wholemeal bread unfortunately there is no legislation that says that it has to have a minimum of wholemeal flour for a bread to be considered wholemeal so we need to be very careful when we read the label of that food there in the supermarket the first ingredient has to be wholemeal flour so I always preferred the breads that have a higher percentage of wholegrain affection, right rich in grains there and I know they usually have a lot of them, no more dry ones but that's when the idea that I'm going to bring to you arrives So that we can use something a little more humid, so for those who like to make a paste with chicken or a paste with tuna, you could mix it with ricotta cream or even a light mayonnaise, you could mix it like this, with a protein source, mayonnaise. It's rich in fat, right? the cottage cheese or ricotta cream will also have a good amount of protein, so we would bring a little shredded chicken or grated tuna, we would make a protein spread to spread on our whole-grain bread and obviously we can combine this with the already known black coffee or a little coffee with milk These were the five options if you liked this video put a note from 0 to 10 if it's 10 I'm going to make more videos with Isa there are several topics we can talk about here if you have any suggestions write them in the comments too the city in which part of the world you are watching this video we are from Porto Alegre we are from Rio Grande do Sul and you write here for me now I will leave a suggestion for you to watch it is a video that I talked about 12 tips to lower blood sugar and reduce glycated hemoglobin if you are diabetic I'm sure this video will be useful just click here o leave this part, a hug until next time!
