There are two main dietary principles for diabetes:
1, the main principle is to control the diet, reduce blood sugar, in fact, is to eat less or do not eat those foods that can easily lead to blood sugar rise, let's say that the food with sugar, if it is addicted to sweets, it is recommended to use saccharin or aspartame and other sugar substitutes for seasoning; in addition, high starch content of food should be limited, especially a variety of sticky food, such as rice dumplings, mooncakes, rice cakes, but also diabetic patients need to be avoided in particular.
2, the second main principle of diabetic diet is to eat less too sweet, too salty, too oily food, preferably not eat. Because obesity is the enemy of diabetes, and diabetic patients suffer from cardiovascular disease is higher than the average person, so it is very important to control the intake of fats and oils, in addition to eating less fried, fried, crispy and high-fat foods, and at the same time, to abstain from meat foods, reduce the intake of animal fats, and the use of vegetable oils to cook food.
Eggs are rich in protein and other nutrients, for diabetics, you can eat an egg a day to enhance their resistance and replenish various nutrients in the body. But if you eat too much eggs, it may cause high cholesterol content in the blood, which will lead to a series of diseases, so you must take it appropriately, excessive is not good for the body.
Eggs are a very common ingredient in our life, rich in nutritional value, rich in high quality protein that is easy to be absorbed by the human body and a variety of other nutrients, and the energy itself is not high, which is suitable for diabetic patients to choose the ingredients. For diabetics, it is recommended that you eat an egg a day, can be paired with 250ml of pure milk, the combination becomes a diabetic meal.

Many people worry that eggs (mainly egg yolks) are high in cholesterol, eating will cause elevated blood lipids, increasing the occurrence of cardiovascular disease In fact, human cholesterol is mainly synthesized from the body, dietary intake of cholesterol produced by the human body accounts for only about 20%, an egg does not significantly elevate our cholesterol, we can rest assured.

Recommended for diabetic patients to eat white water eggs, can maximize the retention of nutrients, and can also reduce should be deep-fried, fried, etc. brought about by the increase in energy. Diabetic patients in the daily diet should pay attention to strict control of the daily total calorie intake, three meals should be timed and rationed, to eat more fresh vegetables, to encourage the drinking of milk or eating eggs to supplement high-quality protein, to avoid eating high glycemic index food, avoid overeating.

Diabetic patients should also pay attention to appropriate exercise in daily life, it is recommended to start half an hour after eating, mainly aerobic exercise, talking about gradual and orderly, avoiding strenuous exercise; also under the guidance of the doctor reasonable use of medication, medication should be individualized, and insulin substitution therapy can be used when necessary. While we standardize the treatment, we should also pay attention to monitoring the change of blood glucose level and regular review, and adjust the treatment plan under the guidance of the doctor.

Diabetic people can eat 1-2 eggs a day, must pay attention to the reasonable way of cooking, the same kind of food, different cooking methods, after eating the impact on blood sugar is completely different. I am mainly responsible for diabetes health management in the hospital, in my daily work will often give the topic of diabetic reasonable diet for diabetics, according to my experience, briefly talk about diabetic reasonable diet:
1, eggs are recommended to do when the soup, you can also boil eggs, steamed egg cake can be, not recommended to have scrambled eggs or fried eggs, after the oil fried or fried, fat intake will be excessive, easy to roughly unstable blood sugar, blood sugar will be high.
2, diabetes reasonable dietary recommendations with reference to the "China Diabetes Dietary Guidelines" a total of 8 important recommendations for dietary structure adjustment, blood glucose stable has great significance in guidance.
Nutritional summary: diabetes reasonable diet as the basis of diabetes treatment, must pay attention to, if you do not pay attention to the reasonable diet, then, take medicine or play insulin effect will not be too ideal!
How many eggs can diabetics eat per day?
So let's take a look at how diabetics eat eggs in real life.
Bev, 32, 1 packet of milk and 1 egg a day, in the morning, and no eggs the rest of the day.
The 40-year-old Gangzi 4 whole eggs every morning, the rest of the meal to see how his wife cooks, do it and eat it, do not do not eat it, there are fried, cold, stewed soup.
65-year-old Mr. and Mrs. Zhao are both diabetic, every morning and evening one person an egg white, do not eat egg yolk.
So on and so forth, there are all kinds of ways to eat, so are they appropriate?
Eggs are the most convenient and common source of protein in our daily life. An egg is about 60g, containing 9g of protein and 6g of fat, which can provide 90kcal.
The amount of protein we need in our daily life should account for 15-20% of our daily calorie intake. For a medium-sized adult male with light physical labor, the amount of protein is 1.0g/kg of body weight per day, which is about 60g-70g.
Purely in terms of protein requirements, this adult male can eat 6-8 eggs per day if he simply uses eggs as his daily source of protein. Considering that staple foods and vegetables also contain a certain amount of protein, then the number of eggs that can be eaten per day will be 5. However, since eggs also contain 6g of fat, the amount of fat consumed per day will be 20g, so after subtracting the amount of fat in the eggs, the number of eggs that can be eaten per day will be only 3-4. However, since eggs also contain 6g of fat, the amount of fat consumed is 20g per day.
Note that this is the amount of eggs you can eat only if you use eggs as your daily protein source. No milk, no fish, chicken, duck, etc., and no beans. However, as the modern era of great abundance of materials, so many varieties of food, even if the eggs can make a variety of patterns, there will be a time when you get tired of eating, so do not be bound by the number of eggs eaten every day, 1 per day is good, and then fish, shrimp, milk, etc. as a supplement.
Some people are worried that eating into the yolk will lead to high blood fat, it is true that eating eggs is a way of cholesterol intake, but our intestines will regulate cholesterol intake according to the needs of the body, you eat more eggs, intake of cholesterol is basically unchanged, and the excess are turned into waste and excreted.
And egg yolks contain nutrients that no other food can provide. Egg yolks contain unsaturated fatty acids, which are good for preventing heart disease, and lecithin, which is needed by the brain, all comes from egg yolks. Egg yolks are yellow in color because they contain riboflavin, which is vitamin B2 and can prevent xerostomia. Lutein and zeaxanthin contained in egg yolks can also help the eyes filter harmful ultraviolet rays, slow down the aging of the eyes, and prevent eye diseases such as retinal macular degeneration and cataracts.
To summarize: Whole eggs are more nutritionally complete, 1-2 eggs per day, supplemented by the rest of the meat, shrimp and milk. If you really don't like foods such as fish, shrimp, meat and milk or take a vegetarian diet and simply eat eggs, then 3-4 eggs per day is also possible.
Thanks for the invite.
There is nothing wrong with 1 to 2 eggs a day for diabetics. Q: Eggs are so high in cholesterol, is there nothing wrong with eating them for diabetes? On the topic of cholesterol in eggs, in fact, we have talked about a lot of similar questions before, the answer is: eggs in the cholesterol is high, but ate nothing wrong, on the total cholesterol impact is very small, or even can be ignored, do not eat healthy high cholesterol food and feel that it will affect the health of the real cholesterol, elevated blood lipids, is a long period of time, unhealthy diet and work and rest habits, and the cholesterol in the food is actually The cholesterol in food is not closely related to the cholesterol in food. However, it should be noted that diabetes combined with kidney disease may need to control the eating of eggs, it is best to eat after the doctor's consent, eggs due to the high content of high-quality protein, nitrogen-containing compounds to generate more, the metabolic load of the kidneys will be increased, which may aggravate the severity of kidney disease.
Let's go back and look at the cholesterol problem, although it is true that the cholesterol in the egg yolk is high, 70g of an egg contains more than 280mg of cholesterol, and the recommended daily intake of cholesterol is 300mg. Therefore, if you eat an egg, most of the people may be too worried to eat other cholesterol-containing foods, and the amount of cholesterol that is ultimately ingested by eating a certain kind of food is not equivalent to the amount of cholesterol that is contained in the food. In fact, the amount of cholesterol consumed when eating a certain food is not equal to the amount of cholesterol contained in the food. The amount of cholesterol consumed will continue to decrease with the increase of food intake, and ultimately has little effect on the total cholesterol. There are many studies that have proven that cholesterol intake from food is not a trigger for hypercholesterolemia, but is mainly related to high-fat, high-calorie dietary patterns, exercise, and genetic factors. The United States in 2015 has abolished the daily cholesterol intake limit, limit also very few people will take cholesterol affect blood lipids, for fitness people, from the former do not eat egg yolks, but also gradually began to accept to eat whole eggs. For sugar lovers, as long as it is not combined with more serious hyperlipidemia, are the same as ordinary people eat eggs on the line.
Since eggs are so nutritious, can we eat more of them? Really can, as long as there is nothing wrong with the kidneys, eat a few more eggs a day will not have any effect on health, but the answer is "not necessary", we do not need to eat so many eggs, eggs contain a certain amount of carbohydrates, rich in protein, it's a strong sense of satiety, although the eggs can supplement the high quality of protein, part of the fat-soluble vitamins and Minerals, but it always lacks some other nutrients, we also need to increase the diversity of food to balance the nutrition, if the egg to eat more, may ignore the intake of other foods; In addition, the egg protein is high, too much protein intake, although it is difficult to convert into fat accumulation, but most of the protein will be broken down into amino acids are discharged, in fact, quite a waste, and the egg also does contain some of the Eating too much fat will also take in more fat. Egg eating method do not have to worry too much, steamed eggs retained protein up to 97%, but fried eggs, scrambled eggs protein retention rate is not less than 94%, so in accordance with their favorite way to eat on the line. Worried about eating eggs will rise high blood fat friends do not worry, eggs are rich in lecithin, can prevent the accumulation of lipoprotein in the blood vessel wall, may also be able to help us prevent cardiovascular disease.
It is not a problem for diabetic patients to eat two eggs a day, as long as there are no special problems with cholesterol and other aspects, such eating will not have too much impact on health. Eggs do not have a particularly large impact on blood sugar, so as long as it is eaten in accordance with the normal eating method, then it will not have too much negative impact on health.
It's best not to eat more than one egg a day, and I would also recommend controlling your diet, eating more vegetables, and controlling your diet is the way to control your blood sugar.
Eggs as a source of high-quality protein, diabetes can be eaten, not only to supplement nutrition, but also to improve resistance, but egg yolks contain high cholesterol, can not be eaten more than one egg a day is appropriate, both supplemental nutrients, but does not cause cholesterol elevation, and will not be too large an impact on blood glucose.
If a diabetic patient is complicated by diabetic nephropathy or has high blood pressure, the patient is advised to judge whether to eat one egg a day or one egg in two days according to the level of blood cholesterol.

In addition, patients are not recommended to eat duck eggs and goose eggs, because they also contain high cholesterol. In addition, we should avoid the kind of fried and pan-fried eggs, and it is better to steam, boil, stew and other methods, which will be healthier to eat eggs.
Diabetics are best served with free-range eggs, which are more nutritious and contain a variety of micronutrients.
Eggs are mainly composed of protein and a small amount of fat, and you can usually eat an egg for breakfast while reducing the amount of other staple foods. You can't eat several eggs a day or eat eggs as an extra meal.
Therefore, diabetic patients can eat 1-2 hard-boiled eggs per day. For patients with poorer nutritional status and under infectious stress, they often need to supplement additional protein, and can eat hard-boiled eggs, but the yolks should not be eaten in excess, and it is recommended that the intake of egg whites be increased appropriately.

General diabetic patients and ordinary people, the recommended daily 1 ~ 2 eggs appropriate, diabetic patients are most worried about nothing more than their own blood sugar, daily very careful to eat low total sugar content, low glycemic index of food, and eggs contain very few carbohydrates, the rate of increase in sugar is very slow, but also nutritious, good taste, is the diabetic patient is very ideal for food. However, due to the high protein content in eggs, if there are patients with late diabetes combined with nephropathy, it is best to eat eggs under the guidance of a doctor, can not eat more, or do not eat or eat less, the metabolites of protein will increase the metabolic burden of the kidneys, may be detrimental to the condition.

Eggs are a very high nutritional value of food, egg protein is the highest absorption rate of all proteins, up to 97%, and contains all the human body needs eight essential amino acids and infants need nine essential amino acids, known as the "whole protein", even milk is also second to the egg, the egg is the most important daily life in the protein Eggs are one of the most important sources of protein in daily life; eggs are also rich in a variety of minerals, such as calcium, potassium, phosphorus, sulfur, iron, zinc, selenium, copper and other ingredients, are often needed by the human body, and eggs in the selenium content of higher selenium, selenium is very limited in the content of many foods, but also the human body needs an important ingredient, by eating eggs can be supplemented a lot. Eggs contain a certain amount of calcium, phosphorus, to prevent calcium deficiency also has a certain role; eggs in the iron element also belongs to the heme iron, absorption rate is higher, the same on the prevention of anemia also has a certain help. Eggs are also good in vitamin content, rich in vitamin A, vitamin D, a small amount of vitamin E and vitamin K, and rich in vitamin B, the most prominent is vitamin B4 (choline), vitamin B2 (riboflavin) and vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) content is not low. And the calorie, fat and carbohydrate content of eggs is appropriate, is a very balanced food, as diabetic patients daily nutritional supplement food is very suitable.

Some friends say that egg yolks have high cholesterol and should not be eaten by patients with three highs, right? In fact, this is a lot of people have a misunderstanding, egg yolk cholesterol is indeed very high, but it does not mean that these cholesterol will have an impact on our health, the cholesterol in our body has an endogenous and exogenous, endogenous is its own synthesis of the secretion of part of the total cholesterol accounted for 80% of the total cholesterol, and exogenous cholesterol from food accounted for only 20% of the cholesterol, and with the increase in the amount of intake, the amount of absorption will be constantly The final amount of cholesterol absorbed is actually very, very small and has a low impact on our total cholesterol. Many recent studies have found that the factors that raise our blood cholesterol are not the cholesterol obtained from healthy foods, but more due to long-term uncontrolled, unhealthy eating habits, or lipoprotein abnormalities (such as too much LDL, or too low HDL), and that the cholesterol provided by 1-2 eggs actually has a really small impact on the human body.In 2015, the U.S. FDA has lifted the limit on daily cholesterol intake, considering that the cholesterol obtained from healthy foods has little impact on human health, and that eating 10 eggs a day, for example, may not be an unhealthy behavior.

Of course, after all, exogenous cholesterol still has a low impact on total cholesterol, so we should stop at a moderate level, but it is not good to eat too much of it, and it is also a big burden on the kidneys. The cholesterol in eggs is also more easily converted into "good cholesterol" - HDL, which can help the metabolism of waste cholesterol, balancing the concentration of cholesterol in the blood, and the lecithin content of eggs can also inhibit the accumulation of lipoproteins in the walls of blood vessels, can prevent cardiovascular and cerebral vascular disease, in fact, for patients with high blood cholesterol, which is probably a good thing! The fact is, it may be a good thing for patients with three high blood pressure. In short, diabetic patients do not have to worry about the problem of high cholesterol egg yolks, daily appropriate to eat 1 to 2, then, will not affect the health, on the contrary, but also on the health benefits.
