a cluster of the most dangerous heart attack risk factors: diabetes and raised fasting plasma glucose,
abdominal obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure.
Excess fat in the stomach area is a greater risk factor for heart disease than excess fat in
other parts of the body, such as on the hips.
Insulin Resistance
The risk of having metabolic syndrome is closely linked to overweight and obesity and a lack of physical
activity.
Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes Mellitus
Condition characterized by either relative or complete lack of insulin secretion by the beta-cells of the
pancreas or by defects of insulin cell receptors
result in disturbances in CHO, CHON and lipid metabolism and elevated blood glucose level
Type 1 vs Type 2 DM
Type 1 diabetes
Gestational Diabetes
Occurs during pregnancy after placenta is formed and is caused by placental hormones working in
opposition to insulin.
Hormones Involved in
Blood Glucose Management
COUNTER-REGULATORY HORMONES—
Glucagon: first hormone released to raise BG; in excess can cause nausea and vomiting (as in injectable
form to treat severe low BG w/ unconsciousness
Growth hormone
increased release of counter regulatory hormones (cortisol and growth hormone) decrease insulin’s
effectiveness
Occurs at dawn for those with normal nighttime sleep pattern; Fasting BG will rise naturally as a result of
release of glycogen stores from cortisol and/or growth hormone production
Somogyi effect:
a high BG always follows a low BG because of release of glycogen stores from liver
Since this is a temporary rise of BG, avoid overcorrection of hyperglycemia to inhibit a continued cycle of
low and high BG readings (will only occur if insulin injection is used)
GOALS:
Address individual nutritional needs taking into consideration personal and cultural preferences &
lifestyle while respecting individual’s wishes and willingness to change
STRATEGY:
1. Medications
2. Lifestyle Changes:
Diet
Exercise
Lifestyle Modification
Exercise:
*In type 1 – doesn’t improve glycemic control but prevents CV complications
- maintains weight
#advise the client to warm up before exercise & cool down afterwards
#30 minutes/day
TYPE 1:
Consume an additional 10 to 15 g of CHO for each hour of moderate exercise & an extra 20 to 30 g for
each hour of vigorous exercise
Insulin administration
IV fluid administration
Hypoglycemia
Rule of 15
Rule of 15:
ingest 30 g of CHO
NO CHANGE=repeat the process, then recheck CBG after 15 minutes. Continue until CBG is normal
For CV diseases:
Exercise daily
For Retinopathy:
Dental Complications
Regular dental check ups
Brush teeth after every meal, floss daily, report bleeding gums, soreness, pain in teeth & gums
Nephropathy
Dermopathy
Bathe daily with warm water and mild soap, apply lanolin-prevent dryness
Neuropathy
Proper foot care: wash feet daily w/ warm water & soap, dry thoroughly; trim toenails to match the
shape of the toes; wear soft,clean & absorbent socks;
GLYCEMIC RESPONSE
INSULIN – Promotes glucose uptake & utilization. As a result, glucose levels decrease
NORMAL FBS;
Glycemic Index
Does not account for the variability of the test food and considers food item in isolation
MEAL PLANNING
Carbohydrate Counting
Emphasizes eating a consistent amount of CHO rather than restricting the type of CHO
All forms of CHO basically affects BG levels similarly when eaten in the same amount
Fat quality is more important than quantity. Take it from monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats,
avoid trans-fats and saturated fats.
*Although those working to manage their weight should still even eat good fats in
moderation.
People with diabetes do not benefit from use of omega-3 (EPA/DHA) Supplements for the
prevention or treatment of CV disease
There is no clear evidence of benefit from vitamin or mineral supplements for people with diabetes who
do not have underlying vitamin or mineral deficiencies. Nor is there evidence to support the use of
cinnamon or other herbs or supplements for the treatment of diabetes.
