Is there a simple book for people with diabetes that suggests healthier food choices?

14 Aug

My 40-year-old brother has adult-onset diabetes. He is recently divorced and has never had to prepare his own meals before now. He doesn’t like to sit down and read, but wants to choose healthier foods. He’s looking for a simple book that will tell him don’t eat these foods, do eat these foods.

He doesn’t really cook, so an elaborate cookbook would not be appropriate. (He almost always eats with family and friends instead.)

Snacks are a problem though. For example, he doesn’t yet understand that although orange juice is healthy for many people, it’s high in sugar.

Any ideas are welcome. He took an all-day hospital diabetes/nutrition class, but found it overwhelming. He wants to eat better. He also has high blood pressure. He grew up eating unhealthy foods and never learned to eat well.

I am looking for people having or knowing about diabetes.?

10 Aug

My boyfriend has been diagnosed with diabetes, and he is feeling VERY down. He used to enjoy eating A LOT and drinking A LOT (mainly beer). Now, being on a diet (he has to have only 5 portions of fruit and veg a day, and to him these portions are too small), he thinks that life is not worth living, and I am running out of arguments. I have been on the British Diabetes Association, talked to nurses… Has anybody here been through this and would be willing to help?
He is type 2.

What percentage of people overweight by at least 20% lbs become diabetics?
Any kind of diabetes. Persons over 50 and overweight for at least 10 years. If you know please give source.
I don’t think anybody knows, for which, the advise of physicians to overweight patients should be “If you loose weight your chances of not developing diabetes will improve by several percentage points.
If you are a dr or dietitian, please answer.

Which diet is best for people with PCOS or insulin resistance?

26 Jun

People say that low-carb diets are good, but I’m not the best low-carb dieter. Also, low-carb diets don’t seem very healthy to me, they are often high in saturated fats and you don’t get enough nutrients. But they also say Low glycemic index diets are good, and I can easily go one one of those. I want to lose between 10 and 15 pounds. Because I have insulin resistance it’s hard to lose and maintian weight.
