Payapl mam, thanks for the plan.. Could you please share the list of 5 best vegetables and lentils and other food items?
Hi Himanshu ,
Thank you for reading at Dietburrp . Actually i am soon posting an article on the foods allowed and to be avoided in diabetes . i think that will carry all the answers you need. Next week , please do come back and read.
Hlo ma’am!
I have a doubt about use of fenugreek.I heard that food like fenugreek ,bittergoud don’t lower blood glucose.They contain some compound which at the time of glucose test just prevent the orignal level being displayed rather than actually lowering blood glucose level.
Hi Lekshmi ,
that is not correct . these foods have a god effect in controlling blood sugar levels in the long run .
Hello
My mother is 75 , she is vegetarian and diabetic , but her blood sugar stays at 10, what meal plan should she fallow to get her blood sugar down
above mentioned diet plan will help
Hi Payal,
1. My husband has high cholesterol(Family Inheritance), can he include ghee in his diet?
2. Q. about direct and indirect form, For eg. If I add ghee while kneading the aata(Indirect) Vs i spread ghee over the roti once it done(Direct). Will Nutrient level be same in both?
Similar Eg. If I make avocado paratha(Indirect) Vs if I eat raw avocado(Direct), Will I get same benefits in both form or will get more if I eat it in raw(Direct form)?
3. I stay in US and I don’t have access to P-nut Oil in bulk easily. Currently I use Canola oil for frying & Olive Oil in cooking. But, Which one is better? When I google, it shows almost similar benefits but if you look cost wise same Quantity of Canola comes for $8 vs Olive oil comes for $32. Please recommend me, which one is better? Are there any significant difference? Otherwise, I can save some bucks.
Hi Resh ,
please find your answers below –
1. My husband has high cholesterol(Family Inheritance), can he include ghee in his diet?
– yes a little bit wont harm . rather it is essential . maintain a steady intake of 1-2 tsp a day . not more . and please avoid dalda, margarine completely .
2. Q. about direct and indirect form, For eg. If I add ghee while kneading the aata(Indirect) Vs i spread ghee over the roti once it done(Direct). Will Nutrient level be same in both?
Similar Eg. If I make avocado paratha(Indirect) Vs if I eat raw avocado(Direct), Will I get same benefits in both form or will get more if I eat it in raw(Direct form)?
– ghee – direct or indirect , calorie and effects on body is the same.
– Avacado and other fruits and veggies , there is not much difference , except that some nutrients like Vitamin C are lost when they are exposed to heat for cooking.
3. I stay in US and I don’t have access to P-nut Oil in bulk easily. Currently I use Canola oil for frying & Olive Oil in cooking. But, Which one is better? When I google, it shows almost similar benefits but if you look cost wise same Quantity of Canola comes for $8 vs Olive oil comes for $32. Please recommend me, which one is better?

I have one last question for you . Is 7.2 HBA1C too high ?
My height is 5.4 and weight 60kgs. As requested by you regarding my height and weight for the following mail.Also note i am a software professional.
Hello Payal,
First accept my regards for rendering such a marvellous job.
I am a diabetic for the past 7 years. I am on glycomet SR 500mg (metformin).Recently my HBA1C was 7.2. For the last 1 year it was like 7,7.2 and the 7.1, latest being 7.2.Well i am taking 1800+ Kcal. Please suggest how much should be my calorie intake. ALso how important is it to take vitamins for a daibetic?Also note i walk for 3+ km 5days/week . age 35
Hi Rakesh , please feel ree to ask me as many questions that you have . the Hba1C is better when kept below 6 . since you are a diabetic from 7 years , the constant high in blood sugar affects the blood vessels of various organs , and thats how all the complications start . although this will not immediately make you uncomfortable , but dont leave it on future , as if the dm is due to physiolocial issues of body , the diets and exercises wont help much in the future , so its better to keep this as near to normal as possible.
