What is Diabetes?
A metabolic condition caused by insufficient insulin production or poor insulin sensitivity
Results in elevated blood glucose levels — diagnosed as diabetes mellitus
Managed through both medication and nutrition
The 3 Key Macronutrients
Carbohydrates — break down into simple sugars/glucose; primary fuel for the body
Protein — supports muscle building, tissue repair, and wear & tear
Fat — provides insulation and concentrated calories
How Glucose Works in the Body
Insulin (produced by the pancreas) uses glucose to power all bodily activities. Dietary carbs are stored in the liver and muscles as glycogen. When carbs are avoided long-term, the body draws on glycogen stores for energy. The Diabetes MyPlate Method (see plate diagram)
½ plate → Non-starchy vegetables & fruits (broccoli, spinach, carrots, berries, apple)
¼ plate → Lean protein (chicken, fish, legumes/dal, tofu, lean meat)
¼ plate → Carb foods (rice, roti, pasta, noodles)
+ Non-caloric beverage (water, unsweetened tea/coffee)
