Mexican Food In Type 2 Diabetes – So There Are Some Things I Can Still Have
You have just obtained a diagnosis of Diabetes 2. Does that now mean one can not go to their favourite Mexican restaurant again? The answer is a no. You can enjoy Mexican food. You can actually ill enjoy almost any food you want. There is one proviso though. Did you know you must watch what you always eat and how much you eat. Mexican restaurants serve many foods high in carbohydrates. Be aware of what you are eating. That basket of chips they often bring to the table is the place to now start using caution. The corn contained in the tortillas have high portions of carbohydrates. The deep fried chips bring high levels of fat. Some salsas have high levels of sodium.
What else do you need to watch when eating at a Mexican restaurant? Rice is certainly not your friend. They make most rice dishes with refined white rice. Having too much rice can easily spike blood sugar readings. Beans may be another red flag. Legumes are also a good sourcs for the healthy fats and fiber. Beans in a Mexican restaurant will likely send your glucose into the stratosphere. Refried beans have added fat and calories that is often saturated. The refrying process breaks down the fibre value also. You get the taste of beans but none of the nutritional value. Tortillas, from either corn or flour, are not good either. Both come from refined grains that hold little nutritional value and high levels of carbohydrates.
What can one enjoy at a Mexican eatery? Chicken fajitas are a good choice. You get a pile of chicken with vegetables. You can moderate the amount of sour cream and cheese you add as well as the tortillas you eat with it. Shrimp fajitas are also good options. Soft tacos with chicken or broiled fish are another option. Getting a taco salad and not eating the deep fried shell is another option. All of these options then allow you to control the portion of rice, tortillas, and beans you may eat.
Portion control is imperative with any restaurant. If you order an entrée, think about requesting a container at the start of the meal. Put half in the container and take it home with you. You will get to enjoy all your food and don’t need to deal with a glucose spike in the process. Getting a diagnosis of the type 2 Diabetes doesn’t mean you have to stop eating your favorite foods. It is a matter of getting control of your portion sizes and regulating when you eat.
