Type 2 Diabetes Diets That Work

Do you want to reduce weight and control your blood sugar? You have a lot of options when it comes to programming.
"The more weight you reduce, the better your levels will be. However, how you go about doing it is mainly up to you "Michael Dansinger, MD, head of Tufts Medical Center's Diabetes Reversal Program and nutrition doctor for NBC's The Biggest Loser, agrees.
However, some options are healthier and safer than others, so consult your doctor or a trained dietitian before beginning. Meanwhile, have a look at some of the most popular plans.

DASH Diet

The DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet is well-known for lowering blood pressure, but it's also a good option for diabetics.
According to Sonya Angelone, RD, a consulting nutritionist and spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, "it's a plant-focused diet that's high in fruit, vegetables, nuts, and legumes, as well as low-fat dairy, lean meat, fish, poultry, whole grains, and heart-healthy fats." "It's simple to follow, good for the entire family, and effective for weight loss."
Toby Smithson, RD, a certified diabetes educator and founder of DiabetesEveryDay.com, adds that the fact that it has been proved to reduce blood pressure is a huge plus. "Hypertension affects nearly two-thirds of persons with diabetes," she explains.

Mediterranean Diet

According to Constance Brown-Riggs, RD, a certified diabetes educator and author of The African American Guide to Living Well With Diabetes, the Mediterranean Diet is an enjoyable choice for people with diabetes because it includes plenty of fresh, seasonal food, plenty of produce, heart-healthy olive oil, and a little wine.

According to the American Diabetes Association, this eating approach can aid with blood sugar control and reduce the risk of heart disease.
According to Smithson, studies show that people are more likely to keep to this regimen, “so it may help you avoid yo-yo dieting.”
Smithson recommends consulting a dietician if you wish to follow the Mediterranean Diet. "The carbohydrate group accounts for half of the foods in this diet. Even if they're good carbs, they must be tracked throughout the day."
