Halloween Treats are Tricks for People with Diabetes
Sorry for so many emails this week. I wanted to make sure
you got this first before any one else.
Dear Friend,
Halloween Treats are Tricks for People with Diabetes
While most people think Thanksgiving starts the
holiday weight gain, New York City Fitness Professional,
Katrina McKenna, claims it starts with Halloween and
that this hits people with Diabetes exceptionally hard.
Excess sugar and weight gain are the last things a
person with diabetes needs. Excess weight often
makes the disease worse. A major aspect of Type
2 diabetes is insulin resistance or the inability of
the cells to work with insulin and weight gain
usually makes this worse.
Excess sugar will wreak havoc on a person's blood
sugar level. Repeatedly high blood sugar levels are
the cause of most diabetic complications such as eye
disease, kidney disease and cardiovascular problems.
Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death (fifth
leading cause of death by disease); it affects over 20
million Americans! Another 40 million Americans have
pre-diabetes. Many of these people do not even know it.
The excess sugar and weight gain can be the cause of
someone with pre-diabetes becoming a full-fledged
diabetic. Katrina encourages all people with diabetes,
or pre-diabetes to avoid excess treats, so they do not
turn out to be a horrible trick.
Some tips to reduce the treat intake:
1. If you give out candy to trick-or-treat-ers, do not buy
it until the last minute. The less time it is in your house
the better.
2. Buy candy you do not like. You will be less tempted
buy it.
3. Give out healthy alternatives, apples, oranges,
raisins, yogurt, money. With the epidemic of childhood
obesity, everyone should be considering ways of reversing it.
4. Get rid of all leftovers, give them to a local homeless
shelter, skinny friends, or just throw them out
5. Allow yourself to have a couple pieces (depending on
size, 1 - 2 "fun" size candy bars) of candy, but only after
having a healthy meal of lean protein, and lots of green
vegetables, the fiber and protein will slow down the
absorption of the sugar into the bloodstream, psychologically
it is easier to be healthy most of the time if we do allow
treats occasionally (1 time per week).
