Why can't diabetics eat peanuts?
Thanks for the invite.
Sugar lovers can eat peanuts, but eat peanuts attention to moderation, peanuts are a kind of fat, calories are higher food, appropriate consumption can add a lot of beneficial components, but if excessive consumption may also be too much fat intake, resulting in insulin resistance, not conducive to the smoothness of blood sugar. Eat peanuts should also pay attention to the best to eat unprocessed, avoid some processed snacks peanuts, such as fried peanuts, fish skin peanuts, wasabi peanuts, sugar-coated peanuts, peanut candies, etc., these foods may add more sucrose, salt, monosodium glutamate (MSG), etc., but also the loss of a lot of beneficial substances, which is not conducive to diabetic patients to eat.
Diabetic patients should pay attention to avoid directly added refined sugar food, should be appropriate intake of food containing natural sugar, such as avoiding candy, desserts, sweet drinks, appropriate intake of staple foods, fruits and vegetables. However, the starch content in peanuts is not too high, and the sugar content is low, so sugar lovers can consume them in moderation. To determine whether the food is suitable for sugar lovers to eat also depends on the "glycemic index" (on behalf of the unit time of the ability of food to raise blood sugar index), and peanut glycemic index is only about 20, belong to the low glycemic index of the food, sugar lovers will not have a big impact if you consume appropriately.
Peanuts are rich in nutrients, containing a variety of minerals, fat-soluble vitamins, appropriate consumption of sugar-friendly; peanuts in the oils and fats also belong to most of the "unsaturated fatty acids", unsaturated fatty acids help to regulate serum cholesterol, clean the blood, help to reduce the incidence of atherosclerosis, thrombosis is to help protect the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular benefits of the components. It is a beneficial component to protect cardiovascular and cerebral vessels.
Just for sugar lovers, high blood fat, high blood pressure, obesity and other problems may affect insulin secretion, increase the load on the pancreas, will also be unfavorable to the control of blood glucose, so like peanuts or other nuts food, should not be consumed too much, recommended daily 10g or so suitable, probably a small cupped amount.

Diabetics can certainly eat peanuts!
Diabetics are always worried about their blood sugar and diabetes complications. Blood sugar is greatly affected by food, and different foods have different ability to raise blood sugar. The glycemic index is a measure of the ability to raise blood sugar. Peanuts are not high in carbohydrates and have a glycemic index of only 14, which has a very small effect on blood sugar. Therefore, diabetics do not need to worry about blood sugar when eating peanuts.
Diabetics also worry about lipids, and the risk of cardiovascular disease increases exponentially if combined with hyperlipidemia. And peanuts are a high-fat food, with almost half of the fat content. However, the fat of peanuts is mainly unsaturated fatty acids, which is not much cardiovascular and cerebrovascular pressure, and even favorable. And peanuts also have a variety of vitamins and minerals, as well as some beneficial plant compounds.
The key is also how much to eat and how to eat peanuts. Peanuts are rich in fat, calories are extremely high, more than 600 calories / 100 grams. So you can only eat a small handful of peanuts every day, about 20 grams, more easy to cause obesity and hyperlipidemia. Peanut processing methods are very much, diabetics should not eat peanuts processed with oil and salt.

Hi, Sanno Speak Sugar is happy to answer your questions!
Diabetics can eat peanuts! It's wrong to say you can't eat peanuts, it just means that fried peanuts, which are high in calories, are less suitable for diabetics.
Peanuts and soy products and other foods, rich in protein, helps to supplement the nutrition. And peanuts are rich in vitamin E, has the effect of delaying the aging process, at the same time for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, has a certain effect.
How do diabetics eat peanuts?
1, because peanuts are high-fat, high-calorie food, 15 peanuts is equivalent to a spoonful of oil, equivalent to a 90 calorie food, so it is not recommended to eat too much, and with fresh vegetables or other dietary fiber-rich foods to eat, so that you can go to reduce the role of peanuts to raise blood sugar.
2, in eating peanuts at the same time also need to reduce the intake of staple foods, according to the food exchange portion (per 100 grams of peanuts contain calories is about 563 kcal calories, about 12-13 grains (16 grams) of peanut rice is equivalent to 35 grams of steamed buns, 500 grams of cabbage calories), to adjust the amount of food.
3, choose fresh, or better preserved peanuts. Moldy peanuts are easy to cause cancer and are not to be eaten.
4, in the blood sugar control is not good, the weight is heavier, as well as higher blood fat, try not to eat peanuts, if you must consume peanuts, it is best not to exceed ten.
5, in the case of better blood sugar control, try to eat peanuts in the middle of two meals or one hour before meals, but do not eat more than 15-20g of peanuts per day.
6, eat peanuts must try to be boiled peanuts, try to less oil, less salt, less sugar, these can effectively reduce the way to bring too much fat and sugar by eating.
Peanuts belong to the nut category, including similar melon seeds, pine nuts, pistachios, walnuts and other seed foods that can be used to extract oil, are not recommended for diabetics to consume too much.

Why can't I eat peanuts? Diabetics can certainly eat peanuts, peanuts are very rich in nutritional value, and peanuts are rich in vitamin E, unsaturated fatty acids, resveratrol, soluble dietary fiber components, these can be said to be beneficial for the control of blood glucose, regulation of the three highs disease, regardless of whether there is no diabetes, daily eat some peanuts is definitely beneficial to the body. Of course, peanuts do contain carbohydrates, but its content is low, if you eat about 10 peanuts properly, will not affect blood sugar too much, so diabetics eat peanuts properly is no problem.
However, no one should not eat too much peanuts, peanuts are good food, but peanuts are still high fat and high heat, which is the composition of the fat, although basically unsaturated fatty acids, the human brain maintenance and development of favorable, but also be able to prevent cardiovascular and cerebral vascular disease, but after all, fatty acids, eat more or have a bad effect on the body, for example, it may cause calorie overload, obesity, which in turn induces other chronic diseases. The study found that even if the nuts are not the right kind of nuts, they are not the right kind of nuts. However, studies have found that even if the nuts in the food fat calories are high, if the daily calories of nuts instead of calories of other foods, people are not fat.
Another point is that the nuts are best is more natural to eat the best, some processed put a lot of additives, such as sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate, etc. may not be the best choice, peanuts are no exception. In addition, some friends think fried peanuts are delicious, but in fact, this will increase the amount of fat intake, the original fat content is higher peanuts, it will be more people intake of excessive calories, which is for diabetic patients, to avoid a diet high in oil, high fat and high sugar, indeed should be avoided.
Diabetics can't eat peanuts? I don't know where I heard this from, but the rationale for this statement is probably that eating them will raise blood lipids, and the truth is that this is definitely a big misconception.
First of all, the usual talk about lipids is a general term for fatty substances in blood sugar, if you go to do laboratory tests will be divided into total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoproteins and high-density lipoproteins, the first three elevated will cause atherosclerosis of the blood vessels, and the latter's role is just the opposite of the first three, to help prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.
Many people believe that the first three elevations are due to eating too much fat and oil, but in fact, the source of lipids in the body is not all from food, and it can even be said that most of the lipids are self-synthesized, for example:
Triglycerides cannot be obtained directly from food, they are synthesized by the liver from the products of glucose breakdown and fatty acids ingested from food, and 80% of LDL is also generated from a series of metabolism of fats and other substances ingested from food, so it is not the case that eating fatty foods will raise blood lipids.
Moreover, when the human body absorbs cholesterol and other fats in food, the absorption rate will decrease with the increase of intake, that is to say, it is not the case that the more fats you eat, the more you will absorb, but rather the absorption rate will decrease. Therefore, whether the blood fat is high or not mainly lies in its own synthesis function is normal or not.
Secondly, fat is divided into saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids, only saturated fatty acids can cause atherosclerosis, and unsaturated fatty acids in the body is a competitive relationship with saturated fat fat, is conducive to the removal of excessive saturated fatty acids, the prevention of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease is beneficial.
And peanuts, although the fat content is high, but more than 80% for unsaturated fatty acids, so eat some peanuts is good, just do not eat too much, each time to eat a dozen peanuts will not have any problem, can be completely as a diabetic snack to eat. With peanuts are nuts, walnuts, melon seeds, etc., diabetics can eat, do not eat more can.

Eating for diabetics has always been a major concern. Many people now know that once you have diabetes, according to some diabetics, the
There are only two things you can't eat, and that's neither this nor that.
This is of course a joke, but it also shows that many diabetics have misconceptions about their diets, and I answer all sorts of questions from patients every day about what to eat, tomatoes, oranges, kiwis, bananas, etc., etc., etc.
My opinion is that all foods can be eaten and peanuts can certainly be eaten, the one thing to keep in mind is to keep track of the amount.
This is very important. A patient once heard that diabetics could eat meat and ate half a pound of elbows for lunch, which was very excessive!

Peanut rice in the main ingredients we attribute to the oil and fat category, about 20 grains contain the amount of oil and fat equivalent to 10g cooking oil, we require diabetic patients daily oil and fat intake of 20g, that is, if you eat into the 4, 50 peanut rice, then your day's amount of oil and fat is enough.
Some patients like to deep fry peanuts, is very undesirable, so that the calorie will be further increased. Suggested eating method for boiled peanut rice, can and other vegetables such as celery, spinach and other cold food, so that the amount of food each time to eat a good fixed, and dish variety.

First of all this question is asked a bit too absolutely. Diabetics not can not eat peanuts, but should eat less. We all know that diabetics, some things can not be eaten, such as high sugar content of things containing high starch. But diabetics are able to eat peanuts, the nutritional value of peanuts is very high, this is clear to everyone. A set of data shows that 15 peanuts are equivalent to a spoonful of oil. That is equivalent to a 90 calorie food. Because peanuts belong to the high-fat high-calorie food. So for diabetics, it's better to minimize the intake of fats and oils. If you eat peanuts, try to reduce the staple food, for example, rice or steamed bread, or even noodles, to eat as little as possible.
Also for diabetics it is best not to have more than 25 grams of fats and oils per day. Diabetics are best suited to eat some vegetarian dishes, even green, green vegetables. For example, some celery, bitter melon, green pepper oleander, cabbage, cucumber, these are suitable for diabetics to eat. Diabetics try to eat less greasy things, especially fried things. Another point to note is that when eating peanuts, never eat peanuts as a dish peanut beans can be eaten in conjunction with other cold dishes, such as peanuts and shredded tofu together cold. Eat peanuts every day to limit the amount, for example, you can eat about 5 to 6 grains.
As a diabetic, the diet should pay particular attention to, there are some things to rationalize with, not that absolutely can not eat, but that must be eaten in moderation. Because itself as a patient needs a variety of nutrients, if a lot of things can not be absorbed, it will certainly affect the health, so that must be rationalized in the diet. Diabetics can eat peanuts, not every day, but two or three times a week, a few grains each time. Diabetics are best to eat peanuts raw, or boiled is fine, it is best not to eat fried peanut beans.
Your question is a bit misleading, diabetics can eat peanuts, and not just peanuts, but any food that a healthy person can eat can be eaten by a diabetic, the only difference from a healthy person is simply the serving size!
Because different states of peanut rice does not contain the same calorie content, to each 100 grams of edible part of the count, fresh peanut rice contains about 298 kcal, fried peanut rice contains about 588 kcal; to a peanut rice for the weight of 1.0 grams of calculations, then each one of the calorie content of the following: fresh peanut rice 2.98 kcal, fried peanut rice 5.88 kcal;
For diabetic patients, while keeping the total daily calorie intake constant, you can reduce the amount of calories in each meal and add some low-calorie snacks between meals to supplement, which not only reduces the total calorie intake in each meal and prevents high blood glucose levels after meals, but also smoothes the fluctuation of blood glucose throughout the day! You can determine your serving size based on your blood glucose level, total daily calorie requirement, and the number of calories in each peanut!
In fact, diabetic patients occasionally consume some peanuts is beneficial to the body, because peanuts are rich in linoleic acid, which can reduce cholesterol synthesis, increase the consumption of lipids, and can inhibit oxygen free radicals and lipid peroxidation damage to the blood vessels, to improve the characteristics of blood rheology, increase the elasticity of the blood vessel wall, to prevent the endothelial damage of blood vessels has an important significance, and this is for the prevention and treatment of diabetes! Cardiovascular complications are also very favorable!
The above is for reference only!
Whoever said diabetics can't eat peanuts, I'm on him.
Peanuts, more common in daily life cost-effective nut foods, in fact, peanuts have a low glycemic index of only 14, but taking into account the fat content of peanuts to reach about 40%, although most of them are unsaturated fatty acids on the prevention of cardiovascular disease has certain benefits, but the intake of excessive calories over the standard is still prone to lead to an increase in fat synthesis, aggravate the burden on pancreatic islets.So controlling the amount is key, and diabetics can eat peanuts, it's just not recommended to eat them much, rather than not at all.
Eating some peanuts in moderation can do far more good than harm to diabetics (mainly because of the calorie issue). Many studies have found that nuts such as peanuts have been shown to assist in lowering blood lipids, inhibiting elevated triglyceride levels, andthereby having a prominent performance in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.For diabetic patients, the body in the glucose and lipid metabolism will be more or less disturbed, the risk of dyslipidemia is higher than the general, the risk of cardiovascular disease is also higher, in theAdding some nuts rich in mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as peanuts, to the diet in moderation can positively promote cardiovascular disease.
In addition peanuts are rich in plant proteins, lecithin, vitamin E, potassium, magnesium, selenium and other nutrients that contribute favorably to the overall nutritional status of diabetic patients.It also provides relief from brain fatigue, memory loss, muscle aches and pains, and decreased immunity.
Tips for eating peanuts with diabetes:
- 7 to 10 pills per day, or about 10 to 15g is appropriate, or about 50g per week.
- Prefer raw food or cooking with less oil and salt.
- Can be used as a snack or with a meal.
- Eat as little as possible if you have gallbladder disease and need to limit your fat intake.
- Some of my friends are allergic to peanuts and these people should not eat them.
