Dietary nutrition for type 1 diabetes

In type 1 diabetes, the cells of the pancreas are destroyed, and the lack of insulin is compensated for by injections of insulin-containing drugs. It is important to control the dose and duration of insulin, as well as the amount of food consumed. Extreme attention must be paid to bread units (XE), 1 unit of XE = 10–12 g of carbohydrates. The daily norm should not be more than 25 XE, which means that you should not consume more than 4-5 XE at one meal. The number of bread units consumed must be calculated in order to correctly select the dose of insulin needed to digest foods.

Nutrition must be clearly balanced in chemical composition and include all the necessary vitamins and microelements. The approximate chemical composition looks like this: 100 g of proteins, 80 g of fats, 450 g of carbohydrates. The energy value will be approximately 2500 kcal.

The temperature of hot dishes should not exceed 60° C, and for salads and snacks - 15° C.

IMPORTANT! Consumption of clean water per day should be at least 1.5–2 liters.


Small, balanced and timely meals are the key to success on the path to diabetes treatment

Approximate daily diet including insulin intake:

  • 8:00 – mainly protein foods (eggs, cottage cheese, meat);
  • 8:15 – taking insulin medication;
  • 9:00 – intake of carbohydrate foods (porridge, rye bread, potatoes);
  • 12:00 – carbohydrate-containing food (bread allowed);
  • 14:00 – lunch (without eating bread);
  • 17:00 – taking insulin medication;
  • 18:00 – carbohydrate-containing food (bread allowed);
  • 20:00 – carbohydrate-containing food.

IMPORTANT! Failure to comply with the diet for type 1 diabetes leads to the occurrence of hyperglycemic coma.

Nutrition rules for every day

  • Eat more dietary fiber. There is evidence of a reduction in mortality in people with diabetes when fiber is added to their diet (at least 14 g per 1000 g of food eaten).
  • Limit the content of trans fats as much as possible: on product labels they are designated as “hydrogenated vegetable fats”, “margarine”, “milk fat substitute”, etc. 8
  • Reduce the amount of sugars, refined grains and high-starchy foods.
  • Replace sugar with sweeteners.
  • Give preference to whole foods. 9

Diet 9 during pregnancy and lactation

Diabetes mellitus can have a latent form and first manifests itself during pregnancy . This is true diabetes mellitus . Gestational diabetes may occur , which appears during pregnancy due to a decrease in tissue sensitivity to insulin. After delivery, there is a possibility of normalization of carbohydrate metabolism. However, there is a risk of developing diabetes in the future.

High glucose levels pose a danger to mother and child: risk of miscarriage , pyelonephritis , fundus vascular complications and complications during childbirth. Therefore, it is so important for pregnant women to regularly monitor sugar levels and follow nutritional recommendations if they increase.

  • The diet completely excludes “simple” carbohydrates, which cause a sharp increase in blood sugar, and limits the amount of complex carbohydrates. Eliminate sweets, sugary carbonated drinks, white bread, grapes, bananas, sweet juices and dried fruits. Eat foods that contain fiber, which slows down the flow of glucose into the blood. Its sources are vegetables and unsweetened fruits.
  • Pasta and potatoes should be present in small quantities.
  • It is recommended to eat every two hours. There should be three main meals and two additional ones. After dinner, you can drink half a glass of kefir or eat half an apple.
  • Throughout the day, constantly measure your glucose level after meals (to do this, you need to purchase a glucometer).
  • Eliminate fatty foods and fried foods, fast food products. It is recommended to avoid sausage and smoked meats.
  • Do not limit fluid intake.

Bread unit system

One bread unit is the amount of any product that contains from 10 to 12 grams of carbohydrates. This is exactly how much is contained in one piece of bread, which is why the units are called bread units (XE). You can find out their content in a particular product from special tables 2.

The bread unit system helps determine the dose of short-acting insulin, which is administered before meals. To do this, you need to measure your glucose level and count how many units the portion you plan to eat contains. According to recommendations, one serving should contain no more than 8 XE. Based on these data, the required dose of insulin 2.4 is calculated.

Reviews and results

This therapeutic diet involves a varied diet, based on foods with a low glycemic index, which help effectively maintain sugar levels. On the recommendation of a doctor, the diet can be expanded. Many patients appreciated the effectiveness of the therapeutic diet.

  • “... I have been suffering from diabetes for many years. I can admit that before I didn’t pay much attention to nutrition, and there were sharp jumps in sugar, which caused complications - my vision deteriorated. Now I can say that a diet for diabetes is necessary. For many years now I have been keeping my sugar within the acceptable limit for diabetics. Nutrition also helps not to gain weight, which is very important as you age”;
  • “... We prescribed this diet during pregnancy, when we were diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus.” She followed it very strictly, as she was afraid for the child and complications during childbirth. I also monitored my sugar levels - I measured them after every meal. After giving birth, the diabetes went away. She donated blood and urine several times. Everything is fine";
  • “... I suffer from diabetes, so this is my main diet. I have repeatedly noticed a deterioration in my condition if I allowed myself “liberties” in my diet—the sugar immediately creeps up. Now I’m taking pills, and I’m allowed to increase the amount of porridge and bread, I can even eat a bun once a week.”
