Will the "five beans," the effect of a really good thing?

Wang Jianhua: About "five beans hypoglycemic," saying the folklore of the long-end, I reviewed a lot of information about diabetes diet, but did not find compelling scientific evidence. The hypoglycemic effect, the "five beans," the role is very limited, at best, can only play the role of adjuvant therapy.

Some patients eat "five beans," the feel good hypoglycemic effect, may have the following several reasons: 1. In the eating "five beans," while eating hypoglycemic agent, is hypoglycemic agents at work; 2. Some of Diabetes these patients are very light, or is stress hyperglycemia, and all such cases as long as the improvement of lifestyle (eg diet, increased exercise, weight loss, etc.), to eliminate stress factors, many return to normal blood sugar.

Denied, legumes are rich in dietary fiber, in addition to improving constipation, it can also slow down food absorption, inhibition of postprandial hyperglycemia, but of only limited use, it can be a diet, but can not be used to replace antidiabetic drugs . Also, pay attention to diabetes diet therapy is the "heat control and a balanced diet," all kinds of nutrients are required by the proportion of intake, rather than the more the better.

Wang Jianhua: legumes (such as soy beans, black beans, broad beans, peas, mung bean, red bean, etc.) has a wealth of nutrition, containing 35% ~ 45% of protein, fat 15% ~ 25%, carbohydrate 25% to 30% relatively high protein content of which is an important source of protein in the human body, it can be eaten in moderation "five beans." But with diabetic nephropathy, renal failure patients, to ease the burden on the kidneys, protein intake should be limited, a daily intake of protein per kilogram of body weight less than 0.6 to 0.8 grams.

If the "5 beans" in peanuts need attention, peanuts contain more fat, diabetes and more difficult to eat. Per 100 grams of peanuts (peeled) with 589 kilocalories, compared with the same weight of rice, pork, mutton, poultry meat, high calories, unrestricted consumption of peanuts will increase calories and fat intake to body weight increased, increased blood lipids, blood glucose and blood pressure is not conducive to the control, the proposed "five beans," Do the best with peanut.
