Heilongjiang News, February 4 (Gao Junzhen Zhou Zhihan) The Spring Festival is an emotional reunion and a feast on the tip of the tongue.
Eating and drinking too much leads to an increase in blood sugar.
Every Spring Festival is a big hurdle to control blood sugar, and sweets and fried foods are often indispensable at Spring Festival family banquets, which can easily lead to an increase in blood sugar, especially for people with diabetes. Li Dongrong, director of the endocrinology department of Harbin Fifth Hospital, said that in combination with the past, there are more people who need to seek medical attention to regulate blood sugar after the year than before the year, and they need to control sugar and eat less to avoid ketoacidosis caused by high blood sugar.
Lack of rest, overeating, aging, lack of exercise, and obesity are common triggers of elevated blood sugar, among which diet is the most important. Director Li Dongrong suggested that to maintain blood sugar stability, we should have a "balanced diet", mainly low sugar and low fat, and in terms of staple foods, fine grains and coarse grains can be eaten together; In terms of dishes, try to eat less foods with high fat content, eat more vegetables, remember to consume less sugar, and try not to put sugar when cooking; In terms of fruit snacks, you should try to choose fruits with low sugar content such as strawberries, cherries, kiwifruit, etc., and nut snacks should choose nuts with original flavor and low fat content, which are suitable for cooking or stir-frying, avoid frying and salt baking, and remember to eat less.
Li Dongrong reminded that taking medicine during the Spring Festival should still follow the doctor's instructions on time and in accordance with the amount, do not stop or reduce the medicine by yourself, check the blood sugar value every day, and seek medical attention immediately when you find that the fasting blood sugar value exceeds 10mmol L.
Long-term sugar craving in boys causes high uric acid.
Excessive sugar intake not only affects blood sugar, but also causes uric acid to rise, and Kobayashi, a 17-year-old boy, is one of the "victims".
Recently, Xiao Lin came to the Endocrinology Department of Harbin Fifth Hospital for medical treatment due to heel pain, and was confirmed to be hyperuricemia by Director Li Dongrong. However, this is not the first time, Kobayashi had been suffering from the disease as early as a year ago, and the uric acid level was comparable to this time, both of which were higher than 600 mol l. The reason for this is excessive sugar intake, and Kobayashi has been in the habit of "drinking drinks as water" for many years, and it is still difficult to quit drinking despite the elevated uric acid.
Director Li Dongrong said that long-term intake of a large amount of fructose is a risk factor for elevated uric acid, and it is also an important factor that is often overlooked. Gout is a disease caused by purine metabolism disorders in the body, carbonated drinks, milk tea, fruit juice and other sugary beverages, either contain a large amount of free fructose, or are metabolized by the human body to produce a large amount of fructose, and no matter which, when a large amount of fructose is ingested into the body, purines will be synthesized, and the metabolism will cause uric acid to rise, thereby inducing gout. Therefore, sugar-loving people should actively control sugar as soon as possible and eat a small amount of fruit in order to spend a peaceful and healthy Spring Festival. (ENDS).
