Recently diagnosed with diabetes loves chicken bored of biscuits?
10 days ago diagnosed with diabetes. He has never been a dog to eat all his dinner at once (only his chicken) but the dried biscuits he used to go back to when he wanted. Now I have had to change his eating order he does not want to eat the biscuits. It has been suggested ti maybe put some gravey or a few vegetables with it. Any suggestions?

I wish i could help lots, but if you type vets on this site, i am sure there is a vets section and real vets give you answerer’s to any minor
problems.

I can only think of boiled chicken with a little rice and a little garlic
and finally diced carrots and some fine greens sneaked in there.

Just mash those tiny vegetables when all cooked & mix it through the
chicken cook all of it together, with a dash of chicken stock, I know
my girl loved it.

I’m doing a research project on the food that people with diabetes can eat. The project is a grant proposal, and I need to find out what the consequences are for people with diabetes who make poor food choices are. Do they get sick, can they die, does their blood sugar spike up? Any help would be appreciated. =]

Do your research and write you paper! You shouldn’t ask people to do your work for you! How will you learn?

My Dad has diabetes and all he does is sleep in bed all day everyday. He needs help to go to the toilet and changes his mood every second. His eyes always get swollen and he is super thin! I don’t know what food to make for him since he can’t have oil, fat, and fried foods! I don’t know what to do!

Answer by Jay S
The thing to do is to get him moving. He needs to walk at least 45 minutes a day. For diet, think green. Broccoli, spinach, cabbage, kale, salads. Add skinless broiled chicken or fish for protein. Turkey is also good. For bread, stick with brown. Avoid the white foods (white bread, potatoes). Take it easy. You will get through this.

He sounds like he is also depressed.

I have heard that people with diabetes should not take cold, flu or pain medications. Why is this? Also, I have heard that they should avoid exposure to high heat and humidity? Why is this? I also would love to know what it is exactly, and why you need to watch what you eat and use a meter?

Best answer:

Answer by Kelle
My husband is diabetic.

He can eat what he wants as long as he balances his foods out and doesn’t over eat.

Heat and humidity are not factors.

You watch what you eat so you don’t eat more food then the insulin you take can handle.

You use the meter to see how well you are doing and whether you need to make any changes.

We applied for food stamps when my husband no longer could work due to diabetic proliferative retinopathy. We were approved. Apparently that was a mistake and the government wants us to repay the 6 months of benefits they gave us. around 5000.00 dollars, we have a family of 5.
We are already filing for bankruptcy, can we add this to it??

Best answer:

Answer by Lauren F
I don’t think so – most government payments are excluded from bankruptcy protection, but check with your lawyer to be sure. Also, sometimes government programs have a waiver or hardship exception that reduces or eliminates repayment of overpaid benefits. Talk with your social worker about that.

How is it that food borne chemical toxins cause diabetes? Like what specifically do they do to your body? And how does being exposed as a very young infant to cow’s milk cause diabetes as well? I KNOW that these aren’t proven causes and just hypothesis. Thanks!

The title of my report is “How Food Relates to Diabetes” .
So far on my board, I put what diabetes is and how obesity can lead to diabetes. I also wrote the symptoms of diabetes.
What else should I put on my board?
