Juvenile Diabetes
- Juvenile Diabetes Information
Having Diabetes means that you have a condition where your blood sugar, or
glucose levels are too high. Glucose comes mainly from the digestion of starchy
and sugary foods that you eat, as well as being produced by the liver. When you
are diagnosed with Diabetes, it means that your pancreas has stopped functioning
properly and is producing little or no insulin.
- Juvenile Diabetes and Obesity
Childhood obesity has significantly changed the face of Diabetes in our
children over the last 20 years. There are many conflicting arguments as to
the cause of the increase in childhood obesity and the seemingly parallel
increase in Type II Diabetes.
- Juvenile Diabetes and Nutrition
Careful and constant management of blood glucose levels is essential to the
treatment of juvenile diabetes. By keeping levels as normal as possible you can
avoid further medical complications such as heart disease, kidney disease and
serious eye problems which may sometimes lead to blindness.

Finding a diabetic Food and sticking to it can be a lifesaving choice. Unfortunately, many people who are diabetic have a sweet tooth and a taste for rich foods.
- Nutritional Recommendations for Juvenile Diabetes
Juveniles with diabetes have the same recommended nutritional needs just like
anyone else. The only difference is that they need to maintain normal blood
sugar levels. In order to control these levels children need to consume a
well-balanced diet by eating foods in the correct amounts.
- Cooking Ideas for Juvenile Diabetes
Many parents are concerned that they will need to purchase expensive
diabetic food products. This is just not true. You can shop for groceries as
you normally would. However, there may be a few new items that you will
stock.
- Planning Healthy Meals for Children with Diabetes
Years of research and studies have found that it is the amount of foods
eaten, not the food itself that causes problems. This is a very important fact
to remember when you are trying to plan healthy meals for your children. They
will eat healthier when they realize they do not need to give up all of their
favorite foods.
