Planning A Diabetes Diet - Diabetic Foods & Beverages

Diabetic Foods

Diabetic foods available abroad arc expensive and are unnecessary. Diabetic jams and fruit juices contain saccharin or sorbitol and can be used in small amounts. Diabetic chocolates contain large amount of fat and hence should not be eaten in an unrestricted fashion.

The labels on the tins/bottles of diabetic foods should be checked as regards composition, food value per serving and frequency of servings.

Beverages

Tea and coffee do not have any caloric value, per se. Milk and sugar added to tea and coffee have caloric value. A diabetic can have tea or coffee with saccharin or aspartame instead of sugar and milk can be added from the daily milk allowance. Sugar is allowed in limited quantities after taking into account its caloric value.

Horlicks, Ovaltine, Bournvita and Complan have considerable food value. One tablespoon of Ovaltine or Horlicks contains about 10 g carbohydrates and provides roughly 50 kcals. One tablespoon of cocoa supplies about 60 kcals. Ten g of Complan provides 5.5 g carbohydrates and 45 kcals. Bournvita contains sugar and glucose syrup and drinking chocolate contains sugar besides cocoa. A diabetic should use beverages containing frank sugar or glucose after taking into consideration their food value. Sugarcane juice contains 9 per cent sugar, while coconut water contains 5 per cent sugar. Soft drinks with fruit flavours and standard cola drinks contain 10 per cent sugar. Low calorie soft drinks are also available. Plain soda water does not have any food value.
