What are LCHF and how much to be taken.
Dear 1019sanjiwani
Adopt LCHF diet pattern and get rid of your diabetes or lower your intake of medicines You have to select food with low glycemic index and high in fat content. Some of the food items I can suggest and remaining you can search yourself. Keep a watch on your FBS and PPBS numbers till everything is settled and if you find yourself consistently hitting in 120-140 range for PPBS , reduce your diabetic medicines, if required. AVOID WHEAT, RICE , BREAD & OTHER CEREALS ALTOGATHER OR LIMITING TO 100 gms CARBS. PER DAY.1. Take Hot Veg Soup Non Strained with 30gms full fat milk cream or around 20gm butter ...
1. large cup measuring around 350ml and enjoy this with a 30-50 grams MIXED NUTS ( Almonds, Walnuts & Peanuts, no cashew), OR Paneer Pakodas OR Dal Chillas.
2. Take all dairy products, it should be full fat stuff (so no skimmed stuff), full fat milk curd which is > 1 day old, butter, cheese, clarified butter .
3. No biscuits, cracker, wafers , potatoes chips etc. Being vegetarian it limits your options.
4. If you are not a thyroid patient then add supplement: ALPHA LIPOIC ACID 300mg Capsule OID. (once a day).
5. Add paneer to your menu, and also eggs if you can afford to take, since scientifically eggs are supposed to be a vegetarian diet.
6. Restrict to just one chapati/meal, and subsequently one chapai per day
7. Fruits -- apple and citrus fruits. No JUICES at all.
8.Please take vegetables like bracoli, peas and beans, cabbage, cauliflower, shimla mirch and other vegetable having low glycemic index. No potato or potato products at all.
9. DRINK LOTS OF GREEN TEA. IT’S A GOOD DIURETICS.
10. Take vegetarian preparations with salads and of course nice quantity of Chutney made from Coconut and daal etc ... 100gms chutney can be great filler and coconut is source of FAT. Try masala dosa with mashed cauliflower and other vegetables, with peanuts to the masala which adds again good quantity of fat ... mashed cauliflower is a great substitute for potato as far as taste is concerned.
11. Take 100ml milk boiled with turmeric and pepper in morning and the same at night . 12. Every bit of movement and calorie burning counts ... minimum walking for15 minutes after every meal within the house is ok. Never use LIFT.
16. ONE VEGETARIAN DISH : Green Salad comprising 1 pc each of onion, carrot, cucumber, simla mirchi, 1 cup of cabbage. All are cut to small pcs, mix lot of curds to it, also add 2-3 spoons of olive oil. Add 1 cup of cream. In addition as a side plate , have 2 boiled eggs or 1/2 cup of paneer. If required eat any vegetable, not Potato or any thing made of Potatos.
13. Try adding sesame seeds to salad and take nuts ( Almonds, Walnuts &peanuts, No cashews ) upto 100gms.per day, take stuff made from coconut.
14. FOR NON VEGETARIAN : You can take freely Chicken, Meat, Fish, Pork & Eggs ( Whole Egg With Yolk ).
