Diet Infos - Atkins and Diabetes

by Jonas Milkei

The diet Atkins principles laying the groundwork for a more
balanced and healthy eating to the standard American diet.
Emphasis is placed on the use of good carbohydrates in
balance with adequate protein. This is in stark contrast to
what most Americans eat on a daily basis. The average
American eats a lot of processed foods that have hidden
sugars and carbohydrates highly processed. This has enabled
most Americans on the road to diabetes and pre-diabetes.
What is sad is that diabetes has a series of steps and
predictable that they can be easily recognized.

The road to diabetes has to do with something called the
glycemic index. All carbohydrates are ranked in this index
over the level of reaction that produce insulin. Foods that
have a high glycemic index of stars will make your pancreas
to release a large amount of insulin to decompose the amount
of sugars and carbohydrates (which produce large amounts of
glucose). The refined carbohydrates and sugars which make up
the vast majority of the American diet rank very high on the
glycemic index.

We are able to more readily digest these foods as children,
because our bodies function more efficiently in our youth.
There may have been side effects, like weight gain and mood
swings, but they didn't stand out. As we age, however, these
symptoms begin to grow and become more prevalent. The
nation-wide obesity epidemic is a result of
high-carbohydrate diets and unstable blood sugar levels.

Many people who are overweight are also resistant to
insulin. Insulin resistance means that insulin is not doing
its job in removing glucose from the blood. The pancreas is
working and that releases large amounts of insulin,
sometimes 20 times higher than the body really needs. This
translates into the blood sugar to fall to extremely low
levels. This sets off a chain reaction in the body that
leads to a release of adrenaline to correct the problem
blood sugar.

With age, blood sugar and insulin difficulties become more
aggravated. The condition is called "hyperinsulinism" and is
a precursor for type II diabetes. It is normally accompanied
by high blood pressure and high triglycerides. After years
of using a high-carbohydrate diet, you will finally become
fully diabetic. Insulin is the body's primary fat creator
and extra pounds usually accompany late onset diabetes.
Pre-diabetic conditions, if not treated effectively, will
lead to diabetes indefinitely.

However, there are warning signs easily identifiable with
diabetes appearing early. Your family doctor can perform
tests insulin levels that will allow you to know if you are
at risk for pre-diabetic conditions, and studies show that a
diet low in carbohydrates like Atkins can help. Controlling
blood sugar is one of the most effective methods for the
control of pre-diabetic conditions.

The Atkins diet helps to effectively control blood sugar.
The combination of proteins, fats and carbohydrates maintain
good body satisfied without the roller coaster effect.
Controlling the amount of carbohydrates and the type will
help limit the peak insulin. This will allow his pancreas
work in the way they are meant to be, and that will reduce
the likelihood of your development of pre-diabetic
conditions. It is a vicious circle which, if unchecked, can
lead to diabetes later in life. When the Atkins diet is
followed effectively that produces blood sugar stable
throughout the day and helps you stay off the road to
diabetes. - 15668
