Hyperglycemia is a common metabolic disorder that is usually caused by inadequate insulin secretion or insulin resistance. High blood sugar can lead to a range of health problems, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, kidney disease, and more. Therefore, controlling blood sugar levels is essential to prevent and** these diseases.
Symptoms of hyperglycemia may include thirst, polyuria, fatigue, blurred vision, etc., which can vary from person to person, but usually worsen as blood sugar levels rise. If your blood sugar level is too high, you may need to take steps to lower your blood sugar level.
Ways to control blood sugar levels include dietary modifications, exercise, and medications**. In addition to controlling blood sugar levels, people with high blood sugar also need to pay attention to maintaining good Xi habits, which include getting enough sleep, reducing stress, and avoiding smoking and alcohol.
In addition, it is important to have regular check-ups and blood glucose monitoring so that any potential health problems can be detected and dealt with in a timely manner.
1.Polyuria
When blood sugar levels rise, the body works hard to excrete excess sugar through the urine. Therefore, polyuria is one of the common symptoms of elevated blood sugar. If you find yourself waking up frequently at night and your urine output is increasing, it could be a sign of elevated blood sugar.
2.Thirst
High blood sugar can cause the body to become dehydrated, which can trigger feelings of thirst. If you find yourself feeling thirsty often, which is not relieved even by drinking enough water, it could be a sign of elevated blood sugar.
3.Fatigue
High blood sugar can lower your body's energy levels, leading to fatigue and feelings of weakness. If you find yourself feeling tired and weak often, it could be a sign of elevated blood sugar.
4.Weight loss
High blood sugar accelerates the body's utilization and metabolism of glucose, which can lead to weight loss. If you notice that you have lost weight and are not taking any ** measures, it may be a sign of an increase in blood sugar.
First of all, the carbohydrate content in millet porridge is indeed high, but it does not raise blood sugar quickly. This is due to the fact that the starch particles in millet porridge are small and easy to be digested and absorbed by the body, so its blood sugar rise rate is relatively slow.
Secondly, millet porridge is high in dietary fiber, which helps to slow down the absorption of food in the intestines, thus helping to control the rise in blood sugar.
In addition, nutrients such as B vitamins and minerals in millet porridge also help to improve insulin sensitivity, which helps to control the rise in blood sugar.
Therefore, for diabetics, moderate consumption of millet porridge does not lead to a sharp increase in blood sugar. But diabetics should avoid excessive consumption of millet porridge to avoid consuming too many carbohydrates.
In addition, diabetic patients also need to pay attention to a balanced diet and appropriately increase the intake of vegetables, fruits and other foods rich in dietary fiber.
1. Control the amount of food
Millet porridge is rich in vitamins and minerals, but it also contains certain carbohydrates and sugar, so diabetics need to control the amount of food they consume to avoid excessive sugar intake that can lead to a rise in blood sugar. Diabetics are advised not to consume more than 100 grams of millet porridge per day.
2. Choose the right millet variety.
Different varieties of millet have different nutritional content, and diabetics should choose millet varieties with higher nutritional value and lower sugar content. At the same time, when buying millet, you should also pay attention to choosing fresh, mildew-free millet.
3. The way of cooking porridge should be scientific
When cooking millet porridge, diabetics should adopt a scientific approach and do not overcook the millet or too thick, so as not to affect blood sugar levels.
In addition, diabetic patients can also add some vegetables or fruits to millet porridge to increase dietary fiber intake and help control blood sugar.
4. Mix food reasonably
When diabetic patients drink millet porridge, they should mix it with other foods reasonably to control blood sugar levels. For example, millet porridge can be eaten with low-sugar whole grains, beans and other foods to avoid excessive fluctuations in blood sugar. In addition, diabetics should also pay attention to a balanced diet and not be picky or picky eaters.
1.Dietary modifications: Diet is an important factor in blood sugar levels. It is recommended to choose foods that are low in sugar and high in fiber, such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes.
Control your carbohydrate intake, especially refined sugars and processed foods. Increase your intake of protein, such as fish, lean meats, legumes, and nuts. At the same time, maintain a proper amount of water intake and avoid dehydration.
2.Exercise: Regular aerobic exercise, such as walking, jogging, swimming or cycling, can help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.
Get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week. Consult your doctor before exercising and develop a suitable exercise plan for your individual situation.
3.Medications**: Use appropriate medications to control blood sugar levels as recommended by your doctor. Commonly used hypoglycemic drugs include insulin, oral hypoglycemic drugs, etc. Follow your doctor's instructions, take your medications on time, and monitor your blood sugar levels regularly so you can adjust your regimen**.
4.Healthy lifestyle: Get enough sleep, reduce stress, and avoid excessive alcohol consumption and smoking. These Xi may affect insulin secretion and blood sugar control. Establish positive Xi and attitudes, which are good for both physical and mental health and blood sugar control.
