What to Eat When You’re Sick and Tired
August 15, 2008
Studies abound linking sleep apnea and diabetes. Unfortunately, many if not most patients who get diagnosed with a sleep breathing problem still maintain a Standard American Diet (SAD). It’s not that they’re unconcerned about their health. Many on the contrary exercise regularly and try to eat as best they can. Yet when their job or lifestyles keep them running around all day it’s difficult to take the time to think about what they eat.
Recently, I interviewed Alyse Levine, a registered dietician with expertise in helping busy urban professionals optimize their food and lifestyle choices in order to meet their personal health goals.
In this interview, Alyse answers some of our toughest questions on how to eat well when you’re at risk for
diabetes like:
* How to control your blood sugar level with food and
not with medications
* When to eat and when not to eat
* How to stay motivated to eat right and to lose weight
* Foods that can help you breathe better and sleep
better
* Why some “good foods” can be bad for you
* Best low sugar, high power snacks to take with you
when you’re On-The-Go
* Tips on what to order and where to go when you’re
eating out
* How to decipher confusing nutrition labels.
* How to find the right nutritionist in your area.
