Pay attention to 5 points, high blood sugar, diabetes, and live safely in autumn and winter

It is not advisable to stick fat in autumn

In autumn, people often talk about "sticking to autumn fat". However, for patients with diabetes, they should not follow the crowd and relax their diet control and exercise therapy.

Sugar friends should not blindly supplement, but should adhere to the control of total energy and balanced nutrition in diet.

It is recommended to increase the proportion of coarse grains and coarse grains in the staple food, ensure more than one kilogram of vegetables per day, and choose meat with less fat, such as lean meat, skinless chicken, fish, etc.

In addition, the weather is getting colder and people's outdoor activities are reduced, but sugar lovers should stick to moderate activities to ensure the stability of blood sugar.

It is recommended to choose light and medium-intensity sports, such as walking, shadowboxing, jogging, cycling, etc. 30 minutes a day and more than 150 minutes a week. Before and after exercise, pay attention to getting ready for activities. When exercising, you need to take a few candy blocks with you to prevent hypoglycemia.

Keep warm in the morning and night

As the temperature difference between day and night increases in autumn, sugar lovers should pay attention to keeping warm and cold, and timely increase or decrease clothing to prevent colds.

Due to the low anti-infective ability of Tangyou, especially the older Tangyou, once they catch a cold, it is easy to induce lung infection, causing a sharp rise in blood sugar. At the same time, some cold medicine can also cause blood sugar to rise. Sugar friends should use cold medicine under the guidance of doctors.

If you catch a cold, you need to frequently measure your blood sugar, especially those who take insulin, so that you can find out the fluctuation of blood sugar in time and contact a doctor as soon as possible.

In addition, many sugar friends with high blood pressure and heart disease should be particularly careful. As the weather gets colder, peripheral blood vessels constrict, which may lead to increased blood pressure and easily lead to myocardial infarction, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases.

Therefore, sugar friends should pay attention to blood pressure monitoring and control blood pressure within the target range set by the doctor in combination with their own conditions. Generally speaking, blood pressure should not exceed 140/90mmHg.

Don't scratch if you feel uncomfortable

Some sugar friends often feel itchy because of the damage of high blood sugar to nerves and blood vessels. In addition, in autumn and winter, the weather is becoming increasingly dry, and skin itching may be further aggravated.

At this time, never scratch the skin. Because diabetes patients have weak anti infection ability, once the skin is scratched, it is easy to cause infection.

Fundamentally, sugar friends should cooperate with doctors to control blood sugar. Diet, exercise, medication and monitoring should not be relaxed, so as to fundamentally alleviate the itching of the skin.

2. Tackling the symptoms

　　? Use of moisturizing lotion: after taking a bath, you can apply a little moisturizing lotion properly, but do not leave too much lotion at the toe seam and groin to avoid too much lotion infiltrating the skin and damaging the cuticle of the skin.

　　? Environmental humidification: As autumn and winter are getting drier, humidifiers can be used to increase humidity in the home, which will also make the skin more comfortable.

Careful for comfortable feet

The temperature gradually drops in autumn. After a busy day, it is a great enjoyment for many people to soak their feet in hot water before going to bed at night to relieve fatigue and warm up.

However, for sugar lovers, it is necessary to pay special attention to soaking feet in hot water.

Many sugar friends may have neuropathy in their feet due to perennial hyperglycemia and are insensitive to pain and temperature. If you use hot water to soak your feet, the patient will often not feel hot. If you add hot water constantly, you will often be seriously scalded and unaware of it.

In addition, there are also Tangyou who have artery occlusion and ischemic diabetes feet. Hot water soaked feet can aggravate tissue ischemia and worsen their condition.

If people with diabetes feet want to soak their feet, they need to ask their families or use a thermometer to test the water temperature. The water temperature should not be too hot. It is better to control the water temperature at about 37 ℃.

After soaking your feet, remember to use a soft dry towel to dry your feet, especially between your toes. Check your foot skin carefully. If you find a wound, you should deal with it in time.

Feeling calm and stabilizing blood sugar

Autumn often gives people a bleak feeling. Many sugar friends are suffering from diseases. When they see the autumn scenery of withered flowers and trees, they feel depressed.

But don't forget that emotional instability can often lead to blood sugar fluctuations.

Therefore, at this time, we should pay attention to regulating our mood. For example, we can take advantage of the sunny weather to go out with our family, or we can cultivate some personal hobbies, play chess, plant flowers, and timely release the bad mood in our hearts, which is more conducive to the control of the disease.
