EDITOR’S PICK: 

You must have heard that diabetes currently has no cure, but this shouldn’t scare you as it is possible to manage the condition effectively. Must persons start searching for fast remedies to treat diabetes instantly, you might just end up being scammed.

There is no quick fix for diabetes, you have to take steps which will help reduce your blood sugar level.

These steps include; watching what and how you eat, doing regular exercise, drinking lots of water and maintaining a healthy weight etc

In this article on EKO HOT BLOG we would be looking at some ways to maintain your blood sugar level.

1. Eat the right amount of meal

You don’t have to overeat to get all the nutrients your body needs. As a diabetes patient, it is important that you eat small meals instead of eating large meals. Some people believe in eating three large meals every day, this can spike your blood sugar. You should instead eat small portions at intervals.

2. Select foods with the low glycemic index

The Glycemic index tells us how fast a particular food can affect our blood sugar level. Foods with low glycemic index digest slowly hence large amounts of sugar don’t enter your bloodstream at once. It is important to eat more foods with low GI scores like beans, lentils, vegetables, certain fruits and foods with low carbs

3. Watch your carb intake

Some diabetes patients neglect this warning. Carbohydrate foods get digested and broken down into sugars. Eating too many carbs will release too much sugar into your blood. There is a difference between low carbs and no carbs. You don’t have to stop eating carbs completely, just eat moderately
