I Wish Restaurants Would Consider Diabetic Friendly Meals On Their Menus. I Wish There Were Restaurants That Would Listen to The Diabetic Population.

[ALFarrell-kvok]

Thank you. I don't have diabetes or prediabetes, but up to 80% of us still get blood sugar spikes. I do. But they are waning in frequency and strength. Even to the point of disappearing. But I still act to prevent diabetes.

Shotgun pellets may hit what a bullet misses. What I mean is that a combination of methods is surely better that only one. So, I have learned to take a teaspoon or two of vinegar in a half cup of water within 30 minutes before eating. Rinse your mouth afterward to protect tooth enamel. Then eat veggies first, protein second and minimal carbohydrates last. Drinking a glass of water is also said to lower blood sugar. I wait for 1 hour after a meal before having coffee, as it can otherwise deplete iron, which only induces fatigue and compounds the fatigue caused by a blood sugar spike. I add a half teaspoon of cinnamon to the coffee as well. It is known to lower blood sugar.

Some 30 minutes after a meal I do 40 squats, 40 push-ups and 40 pull-ups on a 45-degree machine I have. Or I sometimes just run on the spot (stationary running) for a few minutes instead. I have read that blood sugar is beneficially taken from the blood for the muscles when we exercise. I also add some simple acupressure moves that are featured for diabetics here on YouTube by a Japanese lady. YouTube search 'acupressure diabetes' to find it.

Magnesium is also reported to be helpful in quelling blood sugar spikes. But since magnesium has multiple health benefits, I also take it. I am also looking into berberine and it seems to be highly beneficial.

Cooking, refrigerator cooling, and then reheating rice and potatoes also lowers their glycemic index. Or, the cooled potatoes can be eaten with salad instead of reheating. Bread can also be put in the refrigerator and then toasted. Both cooling and toasting bread lowers its glycemic index. Feeling great. Get proactive and prevent diabetes. Or lower your condition into reverse in only a few months. Win yourself that prize!

You should always test your glucose and see what it do with your bloodsugars. I cannot eat bread and i cannot even eat cheese.
So now i eat carnivore, the cleanest way of keto. And this helps me to to get my glucose down. For years i have used insilin and now i am insulin-free for 17 months.

[vickyburton]

I am an extremely insulin resistant type 2 diabetic. Any person with any type of diabetes should eat like this! Thank you!

I eat low carb. My favorite low carb meal is Roasted Cauliflower, jerk chicken, and avocado salad

[donnaleecriss]

I am not a diabetic but i am 72 and overweight. this looks like a wise menu for most people

Excellent recipes! For the Tuna Salad: Remember to look at the ingredients of your pickles. Especially in the US, those contain A Lot of added sugar or (the horror) artificial sweeteners, maybe not the best choice to add as a juice to the salad. In countries where the pickles are actually fermented (some EU countries) the juice is safe, healthy and delicious.
You can also add canned cod liver to the salad, for some added omegas.

For the cauliflower: I like to toss that in the airfryer. Crispy goodness!

I've been trying to learn dishes to cook for my father to help with his blood sugar and had no idea where to start but your video really helped. Thank you for making this! <3

I do a chopped salad with avocado, Roma tomato and cucumber and carrot (peeling skin off cucumber and carrot), romaine lettuce, garlic, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper and garlic powder (I love garlic). I can eat this daily and love that I don't have to heat up the kitchen cooking. I sometimes add other things especially fruits like chopped apple if I am out of avocado and lemon juice.

I really like these, considering that it’s so hard to eat healthy when I’m tried in the morning and I automatically choose something pre-packaged from the fridge. These look very simple to do even when I’m tired!!

[jesseberry]

Dude I want you to know you are awesome and legitimately saving my life with your tips my sugars are getting way better taking advice from you

[carblesslydelicious]

Hey there Tom! I came across your channel and wanted to congratulate you on the tremendous job you are doing to impact lives in such an awesome way. I sincerely send my well wishes of GOOD HEALTH to you and everyone within your community! I agree with you 100%, healthy nutrition is definitely a key factor, which requires us to modify traditional recipes; we can replace sugars with sweeteners that are proven not to spike glucose & blood sugar levels, reduce carbs, and totally substitute refined flours and bread products with tasty low carb alternatives. We can still enjoy delicious meals while eating healthy. Stay blessed and healthy my friend! 💖

Favorite low carb dish: eggs, cheese, butter and whatever vegetables I have around (peppers, onions, broccoli, etc)

For anyone in the US looking to make these recipes, please note that the coriander here is what we call cilantro. In the US, the only coriander we have is the seed, the herb of the plant is called cilantro. On another note, I have had type 1 for about 13 years now and have been low carb from the beginning. I would still need to bolus for these meals, even though they are low carb. I think once I started ketosis, I noticed that I needed to bolus for protein and fat even with minimal carbs. Of course, I don't need to bolus very much, maybe 3-5 units depending on how much protein is in the meal. If one is not low carb, I am pretty sure that they probably would not need to bolus. These look very tasty! Especially the chicken curry soup!

[antwanp]

I just found out I'm at a high risk for diabetes so this has definitely helped. Thank you!

[terrivandagriff]

Thanks! I am type 2. And your cgm videos saved me lots of frustration. Love your videos, and the accent. Keep doing what you do. I like that you gave options for carb or no carb as everyone is different, on a daily basis. Keep up the great work!

[victorialg]

I am grateful for the meal suggestions. I try to keep my meals 6, 12, 12 carbs per meal. Doing that I do not need any meds and my blood sugars stays 79 - 100.
Of course that means I can not have the bread, but I feel so much better for not having it.

[maintaindew]

Just discovered your channel. I am going to watch every single one of your videos.

[lyndarenney]

One meal I like is to get your muffin tin and add bits of meat (cooked chicken etc) small pieces of vegetables and then add eggs beaten together with milk to fill almost to the top. Sprinkle some grated edam cheese on top an d then bake them. Eat warm or let cool completely and store in the fridge. They make a great breakfast or add some salad and have them for lunch.

[lailasoriano]

I just found out Im type 2 last Friday. Thank you for your recipes. Im trying hard to reverse my diabetes. God bless us all.❤
