Nutrition therapy
• Nutritional therapy should be individualized according to
• preferences, • age, • needs, • religion, • culture, • lifestyle
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 4
Goals of Nutritional therapy that apply to individuals with diabetes
• Achieve and maintain
Blood glucose levels in the normal range
A lipid and lipoprotein profile that reduces the risk for cardiovascular disease
Maintain blood pressure levels in the normal range
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 5
• modifying nutrient intake and lifestyle To prevent, or slow, the rate of development of the chronic complications
• To address individual nutrition needs,

Diabetes food pyramid
the Diabetes Food Pyramid divides food into six groups, which vary in size to show relative amounts of servings for each groupthe groups are based on protein content and carbohydrates instead of their food classification
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 7
A person with diabetes should eat more of the foods in the bottom of the pyramid (grains, beans, vegetables) than those on the top (fats and sweets).

What is Serving Sizes
• Serving sizes are defined by the USDA Food Guide Pyramid as a standard amount used to help give advice about how much food to eat.
• It also helps us identify how many calories and nutrients are in a food
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 13
serving size guidelines
• Measure a serving size of dry cereal or hot cereal, pasta, or rice and pour it into a bowl or plate. The next time you eat that food, use the same bowl or plate and fill it to the same level.
• For one serving of milk, measure 1 cup and pour it into a glass. See how high it fills the glass. Always drink milk out of that size glass.
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 14
• Meat weighs more before it's cooked. For example, 4 ounces of raw meat will weigh about 3 ounces after cooking. For meat with a bone, like a beef chop or chicken leg, cook 5 ounces raw to get 3 ounces cooked.
• One serving of meat or meat substitute is about the size and thickness of the palm of your hand or a deck of cards.
• A small fist is equal to about 1/2 cup of fruit, vegetables, or starches like rice.
• A small fist is equal to 1 small piece of fresh fruit.• A thumb is equal to about 1 ounce of meat or cheese.• The tip of a thumb is equal to about 1 teaspoon.
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 15
• serving size guidelines of fruits and vegetables a day?• The National Cancer Institute defines a serving as:• One medium-sized fruit (ex. apple, orange, banana, pear)• 1/2 cup of raw, cooked, canned or frozen fruits or
vegetables• 3/4 cup (6 oz.) of 100 percent fruit or vegetable juice• 1/2 cup cut-up fruit• 1/2 cup cooked or canned legumes (beans and peas)• 1 cup of raw, leafy vegetables (ex. lettuce, spinach)• 1/4 cup dried fruit (ex. raisins, apricots, mango)

Vegetables and fruits serving
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 18
Fruits package their sugars with fibers, vitamins, and minerals, making them a sweet and healthy snack.

A half-cup of vegetables weighs about 100 grams; one pea weighs about ½ gram
One cup is about 240 milliliters; a half-cup of liquid is about 120 milliliters
HIGHER ENERGY DENSITYThis 144-gram breakfast delivers 500 kcalories, for an energy density of 3.5 (500 kcal ÷ 144 g = 3.5 kcal/g).
LOWER ENERGY DENSITYThis 450-gram breakfast delivers500 kcalories, for an energy density of 1.1 (500 kcal ÷ 450 g = 1.1 kcal/g).

Portion Control
"Portion control" means: See how much you eat. Decide how much to eat Cut back on portion size
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 21
the difference between a portion and a serving size
• A serving size is a recommended standard measurement of food.
• A portion is how much food you eat, which could consist of multiple servings.
• knowing the size of a serving can help determine healthful portions
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 22
The plate methodIs a way to plan meals without measuring (a qualitative diet approach). fill your plate (20 cm diameter) to match the amount of vegetables, starches, and meat, and then add a piece of fruit and/or a glass of milk. Divide your plate in quarters. Amount of vegetables eaten, protein is optional
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 23
Filling a dinner plate (20 cm diameter) excluding snacks will provide 1200 – 1500 calories per day depending on serving size
The plate method is ideal for most non-insulin treated persons and some with type 2 diabetes on fixed insulin doses.Advantages: it is simple, adaptable, embodies principles of healthy eating, and promotes memory and understanding via visual messages. Disadvantages: not flexible, especially in insulin-treated persons with diabetes who need to vary carbohydrate intake/meals.

Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) or Type I Diabetes (Juvenile onset diabetes)
• In type 1 diabetes, the less common type, the pancreas fails to produce insulin.
• commonly occurs in childhood and adolescence, but it can occur at any age, even late in life
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 29
Nutrition therapy for type 1 diabetes
• Nutrition therapy for type 1 diabetes focuses on;• maintaining optimal nutrition status, basic
nutrient requirements • controlling blood glucose, • achieving a desirable blood lipid profile, • controlling blood pressure, • and preventing and treating the complications of
diabetes
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 30
• Nutrition therapy for type 1 diabetes• the diet must provide a fairly steady
carbohydrate intake from day to day and at each meal and snack to help minimize fluctuations in blood glucose
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 31
• To avoid hypoglycemia, the person must monitor blood glucose before and after activity
• Carbohydrate-rich foods should be readily available during and after activity
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 32
Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) or Type II Diabetes.
• In type 2 diabetes, the more common type of diabetes, the cells fail to respond to insulin. This condition tends to occur as a consequence of obesity.
• It is important to eat the suggested amount of carbohydrate at each meal, along with some protein and fat.
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 33
• Complex carbohydrates are considered healthier mostly because they are digested by the body slowly, providing a steady source of energy
• Carbohydrates are mainly found in the following food groups:
• Fruit• Milk and yogurt• Bread, cereal, rice, pasta• Starchy vegetables like potatoes• They also contain valuable amounts of fiber
Dr. Siham M.O. Gritly 34
Recommendations for Type 2 Diabetes In overweight people with type 2
• Recommendations for Type 2 Diabetes In overweight people
• moderate weight loss (10 to 20 pounds) can help improve insulin resistance, blood lipids, and blood pressure.
• Together with diet, a regular routine of moderate physical activity not only supports weight loss, but also improves blood glucose control, blood lipid profiles, and blood pressure.
