HEALTH AND NUTRITION

Cooking with Oil Affects Blood Sugar

Katherine Lawrence, PCRM Food for Life Instructor

Vegetable oils are often thought of as healthier than animal fats, however, they are just as high in calories, Oil, any type, is 100% fat and for every 1 gram of fat, there are 9 calories. This fat not only expands our waistlines, it interferes with cellular function and reduces insulin sensitivity.

Normally, insulin attaches to receptors on our cell's surface and signals the cell membrane to allow glucose to enter. However, as fat accumulates inside our cells, it interferes with this signaling process leaving glucose to circulate in our blood, raising blood sugar levels. Studies have shown that reducing fat intake to 10% of total calories can lower blood sugar and reverse type 2 diabetes. For example, a diet high in plants (vegetables, fruits, beans and grains) is typically 8 to 10% fat. It is fried foors, oily sauces and recipes with added oils that drive our fat intake well above what is needed.

How we prepare food can be as important as our food choices. Using high-quality cookware like Saladmaster allows us to cook all types of food withour any added oil. By preserving nutrients without adding fat, Saladmaster ensures we receive the maximum benefit from our meals. With every low-fat meal we consume we regain insulin sensitivity and regulate blood glucose levels.

I Never Eat Sweets - Why Did I get DIABETES?

Almost everything you eat is converted into glucose, which is sugar. For most people with type 2 diabetes what you eat is not as important as how much you eat. When you overeat, you are adding extra calories you body doesn't need for energy so your body will convert these extra calories into fat. Being overweight is a predispoding factor for developing diabetes.
