  1. Welcome to In-unit Seminaron Nutritional Management of Diabetes Mellitus Meerakaur, Ph.D., R.D. May 13, 2009

  2. Nutritional Management of DM.. • Goals are to • achieve target blood sugar level • achieve and maintain desirable body weight • prevent the complications • manage the complications if already developed • improve the overall quality of life

  3. Nutritional Management of DM.. • At the bottom line: • To follow Canada’s Food Guide for Healthy Eating • Carbohydrates: 45-60% of energy (choose complex CHO with low glycemic index) • Protein: 15-20% of energy (encourage more fish than meat, specially fatty fish) • Fat: <35% of energy (SFA: <%7, PUFA: <%10; include PUFA-especially n-3 PUFA) • Vitamins+Minerals: Routine supplementation is not necessary • Alcohol: <14 and <9 std. drinks for men and women/week respectively

  4. Nutritional Management of DM • At the bottom line: • Referral to RD • Education to those patients on intensive insulin therapy about matching insulin to CHO content of meals (CHO counting) • Weight management • Regular physical activities • Team approach

  5. One in two type-2 diabetes patients in Canada are not at target (<7%).

  6. Glycemic Control in Canada • Even though only ½ have glycemic control, only 12% of patients are currently on insulin. • Harris, E. et al, Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2005;70:90.

  7. Risk Reduction for Diabetes By Achieving a Specific Lifestyle Target – Diabetes Prevention Study N Eng J Medicine 2001: 344: 1343-50.

  8. Glycemic Index • Has been around for over 20 years. • May help to: • Control blood glucose levels • Control cholesterol levels • Control appetite • Lower risk of getting heart disease • Lower risk of getting type 2 diabetes • Ranks foods by how much they raise blood glucose levels compared to glucose or white bread. • In general, the lower the rating, the better the quality of carbohydrate. • Usually low in calories and fat, while also being high in fiber, nutrients and antioxidants.

  9. What Affects GI? • Size of particle • Cooking • Spaghetti boiled 5 min GI = 34 • Spaghetti boiled 10-15 min GI = 40 • Processing • Cornflakes GI = 86 • Porridge GI = 49 • Fat (Lowers GI) • Potato Chips GI = 75 • Baked Potato GI = 93 • Acidity – lower pH slows gastric emptying= lowers GI • Mixture of meals (Protein, Fat, CHO)

  10. Blood Glucose Levels

  11. Glycemic Load vs. Glycemic Index • The glycemic load is calculated by multiplying the glycemic index by the amount of CHO in grams provided by a food and dividing the total by 100. • Takes into account quality (glycemic index) and quantity of CHO in a meal. • Glycemic Load may be a better indicator. • Confuses the issue even more.

  12. Better Yet… • Better to give direct recommendations. • Increase whole grains, nuts, legumes, fruits, and non-starchy vegetables. • Decrease white stuff, desserts, and pop.

  13. Fiber • Insoluble • Soluble • Improves glucose control

  14. All about Meals • Quantity is important. • What foods have CHO in them? • Quality is important • Foods that slow digestion (protein, fibre) vs. foods that speed through (soft drinks, candy). • Protein at each meal. • 20-30 g fiber each day. • Spacing of meals. • Wave Effect. Want consistency. • Meals should be 3-4 hours apart. • Do not skip meals.

  15. What your plate should look like…

  16. Other Important Lifestyle changes… • Exercise • 150 minutes per week of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity. • Should be at least 3 days/week, no more than 2 consecutive days without physical activity. • Same recommendation for those with impaired fasting blood glucose or diabetes. • Stress test may be needed. • Consistent exercise for 8 weeks can lower HgA1C by 1% (New Recommendations Regarding Exercise and type 2 Diabetes ) • Weight loss • Even 5-10% of BW makes a difference. • Shows improvement in glycemic control, lipid profiles, insulin sensitivity and BP.

  17. Fasting or Before Meals One or Two Hours after a Meal

  18. UKPDS: Decreased Risk of Diabetes Related Complications Associated with a 1% Decrease in A1C Adapted from Stratton, IM, et al. UKPDS 35. BMJ 2000; 321:405.

  19. BOTTOM LINE: We need to be controlling blood sugars better! • Require: • Appropriate glucose monitoring • Learning meaning behind test results • Using test results to understand the link between food and blood glucose. • Important for all people with diabetes. • Modern insulin thinking • If their sugars are not in control, use all that is in your toolbox. • Adaptive thinking.

  20. When starting insulin… • Rapid acting • Humalog/NovoRapid • Target PPG = 7-8 mmol/L • Select largest meal first • Start with low dose : 4-6 u and titrate • Adjust for the meal content • Less hypoglycemia

  21. Carbohydrate Counting • 1 CHO Choice = 15 gram CHO • Males • 3-5 CHO choices, 1 protein choice per meal • 1-3 CHO choice, ½ protein choice per snack • Females • 2-4 CHO choices, 1 protein choice per meal • 1-2 CHO choice, ½ protein choice per snack

  22. Hypoglycemia Guidelines • Rule of 15 • If <4 mmol/L • Treat with 15 grams CHO (glucose or sucrose) • Wait 15 minutes • Re-check blood sugars • Re-treat if <4 mmol/l

  23. Question Which food will raise blood sugar quicker? • Whole wheat bread or pita bread? • Shredded Wheat or Cheerios? • Pasta or short-grain rice? • Sweet potato or Russet potato? • Popcorn or Rice Cakes?

  24. Other Nutrients of Importance? • Which other nutrients in foods will decrease the glucose surge when eaten with CHO foods? • Protein • Fat • Fiber

  25. Your patient, Sandra • 55 YO, diagnosed with type 2 diabetes one-year ago. • Blood sugars are not in control. • Typical day of blood sugars: • am 9, 2 hour post breakfast 10 • Before lunch 8, 2 hour post lunch 9 • Before supper 9, 2 hour post supper 15 • Before bed 13-14 • Ideas for management?

  26. Management • Start insulin with largest meal of the day (supper) • Typical supper: 2 c kraft dinner, ½ c cottage cheese, 3 toast with peanut butter, 1 c ice-cream for dessert. If we were giving pt insulin based on CHO consumption, what would you recommend Sandra take for insulin at this meal?

  27. Fiber • Food with 5+ grams of fiber per serving: • Subtract this from total CHO content in serving. Example 1/3 cup All-Bran Buds 23 grams CHO, 12 grams fiber 23-12= 11 grams of digestible CHO.

  28. Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes • All countries agree that we need a structured program for weight loss and physical activity. • For IGT, recommend that metformin and/or acarbose be used to prevent diabetes onset. • 2008 Canadian Practice Guidelines for Diabetes Prevention and management are released now for more information.

  29. Management of GDM • Nutritionally adequate diet following Canada’s Food Guide for healthy eating • Adequate in energy to promote normal weight gain and prevent ketonuria • Low in simple sugars and juices • Food distributed between 3 small meals and 3 healthy snacks at regular time • Adequate fluid intake (6-8 cups/day) • Sweetener may be used within the acceptable daily intake limits. • Avoid alcohol

  30. Management of Postpartum • Encourage breastfeeding • Encourage maintaining/ achieving healthy wt. for ht. for prevention or delay of diabetes later in life and/or subsequent pregnancies • Encourage to follow diet suggested for management of diabetes early in subsequent pregnancies

  31. Key Messages • Nutrition therapy can reduce the glycated hemoglobin by 1.0-2.0%. • Consistency in carbohydrate intake + regularity in meal time and meal spacing may help control blood glucose and body weight. • Replacing high-glycemic index carbohydrates with low-glycemic index carbohydrates in mixed meal has a clinically significant effect on glycemic control in people with Type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

  32. Resources Used Today • Tuomilehto, J et al. (2001). Prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus by changes in lifestyle among subjects with impaired glucose tolerance.
