World Diabetes Day 2024 is the primary global awareness campaign focusing on diabetes mellitus and is held on 14 November each year. WDD is led by the International Diabetes Federation and each World Diabetes Day focuses on a theme related to diabetes.
International Diabetes Federation (IDF) organised the event, which focuses on diabetes prevention, health risks, and managing and living well with the disease.
What is Diabetes?
Diabetes mellitus, also known as diabetes, is a metabolic disease marked by consistently elevated blood sugar levels. Diabetes is a chronic illness in which the body either produces insufficient amounts of insulin or is unable to use the insulin that it produces efficiently.
The pancreas secretes the hormone insulin, which is crucial for controlling blood sugar levels. Blood sugar levels can rise and cause issues with the heart, kidneys, feet, and eyes if insulin is not functioning properly.
Top 5 best winter foods for diabetic patients
Sweet potatoes– For diabetics, sweet potatoes are a wintertime favourite because they contain complex carbohydrates that break down gradually, avoiding sudden blood sugar rises.
Green leafy vegetable- Rich in iron, magnesium, and fibre, this leafy green vegetable helps to improve metabolic health and control blood sugar.
Carrots– Carrots are good for diabetics since they are low in carbohydrates and high in beta-carotene and fibre.
Oats– With a low glycemic index and a high fibre content, particularly beta-glucan, which inhibits the absorption of glucose, oats make a hearty breakfast choice for chilly mornings.
Beetroot– A nutrient-dense winter vegetable that is high in fibre and antioxidants is beetroot. It supports cardiovascular health and lowers insulin resistance, both of which are critical for diabetics.
