Diabetic diet

Beschreibung

There is much controversy regarding what diet to recommend to sufferers of diabetes mellitus. The diet most often recommended is high in dietary fiber, especially soluble fiber, but low in fat.However, recommendations on the fraction of total calories to be obtained from carbohydrates range from 1/6 to 75%. Patients may be encouraged to reduce their intake of carbohydrates that have a high glycemic index (GI). But others question the usefulness of the glycemic index and recommend high-GI foods like potatoes and rice.
