Diet Doc’s Medical Team Utilizes ‘Slower-Carb Options’ to Improve Health Markers in Diabetic Patients

Montgomery, AL, Sept. 12, 2017 -- Diabetes is a disease that affects the body’s ability to produce insulin. Insulin is a hormone (secreted by the pancreas) that transports glucose from the bloodstream to the cells. When the pancreas produces little or no insulin, blood glucose levels are no longer regulated by the body. If you’ve been diagnosed with diabetes or prediabetes, following a diabetic diet can provide great benefits for your overall health. Too much glucose in the blood can cause damage to several organs, including the kidneys, eyes, nerves and the heart. That’s why it is imperative check blood sugar levels often and switch to a diet that better manages those levels.

Rich in nutrients, a diabetic diet plan can help to control blood glucose levels, trigger weight loss and reduce the risks of inflammation and cardiovascular disease. Diet Doc, a national, medical weight loss center with a team of certified doctors and nutritionists assists diabetic patients with safe, gradual weight loss. Lead by its Medical Director, Dr. Nishant Rao, Diet Doc is helping patients manage their diabetes by placing them on scientifically sound diet plans. According to Dr. Rao, “Diabetic diets lean heavily on awareness around the glycemic index and the glycemic load of foods. The goal of these diets revolves around reducing blood glucose levels, improving insulin sensitivity and weight loss. Slow carbs such as vegetable starches, whole unprocessed grains make up the bulk of the carbohydrate intake, which is itself limited sometimes to near ketogenic numbers 100 grams, or all the down to 20-50 grams per day to enter ketosis (which provides some benefit to diabetics to quickly improve blood markers).”

Diet Doc monitors glucose levels along with A1C and long term diabetic markers to gauge health improvements from lower carb ketogenic dieting, along with what Dr. Rao refers to as, ‘higher but slower carb options.’ A diabetic diet does not restrict carbs or sugar entirely since sticking to a low-carb diet may bring blood glucose levels too low. Thus, slow carbs are needed for energy, blood sugar stabilization and muscle preservation. Individuals on a diabetic diet program at Diet Doc consume more complex carbs such as brown rice, quinoa and rye bread which also contain necessary b-vitamins, minerals and fibers that provides the body with essential nutrients.
