Q

excess protein can be harmful in which patients

A

CKD

27
Q

what has research shown about carbs

A

they are no less healthy than fats or proteins

28
Q

what are the pros of keto for DM

A
  • encouraged by noticably ealy results
  • faster early weight loss
  • early improvements in glucose
29
Q

What are the cons of keto for DM

A

keto flu
long term compliance is not good

studies show after one year no major differences in glycemic control
(probs be cuase of lack of adherence to diet)

30
Q

how many carbs is 1 unit of rapid acting insulin

A

12-15 grams

31
Q

DMpatients who are counting carbs or are reliant on insulin will especially benefit from what nutrition resource

A

deit exchange lists

32
Q

what is the term used to describe foods that cause a rapid rise in BG followed by a rapid drop in BG.

A

high glycemic index

33
Q

quality of carb related to normal serving size

A

glycemic load

34
Q

quality of a carb (not taking into account normal serving portion)

A

Glycemic index

35
Q

what is low, medium and high GI levels

A

low <55
medium 56-69
high >70

36
Q

what is low, medium and high GL levels

A

low <10
medium 11-19
high >20

37
Q

consuming 5+ servings of this food weekly reduces risk of developing DM by 15-27%

A

nuts

also good for people who already have DM for cardiovascular benefits

DOES NOT LOWER OR IMPROVE GLYCEMIC CONTROL in patients w DM

38
Q

in what situation would a patient with DM who is taking insulin be at very high risk for hypoglycemia

A

when consuming alcohol WITHOUT food

39
Q

contributes to elevated TG and overall worse glucose control

A

excessive alcohol intake

40
Q

what beverage can have a protective effect against DM if it is drank regularly

A

coffee!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOOOO

….. also present in people who drink decaf and tea though.. yuck.

reminder: this is in people who DONT have diabetes

41
Q

what beverage has been shown to raise plasma glucose and insulin levels…. therefore decreasing insulin sensitivity in T2DM patients

A

caffiene.

long term abstinence from caffiene may lower HbA1c

42
Q

Insulin cofactor that MAYBE helps stimulate insulin receptors so we clear out our BG.

A

chromium

43
Q

Insulin cofactor with narrow TI

A

vanadium

causes massive GI upste, not super reccomended

44
Q

we use this to treat elevated TG’s

A

fish oil

45
Q

thought to be healthy due to its bioflavinoud antioxidants but no research to back it up

A

dark chocolate

56
Q

this is produced from the refinement of corn

A

high fructose corn syrup

57
Q
