Why Try DASH Diet? December 16, 2016

Well, the site I am looking right now present how DASH diet can help to reduce high blood pressure. Really? I would take it if.... if blood pressure would be treated in another way then blood sugar. The matter of fact, regardless what we wish to decrease or increasing, the  diet is the same. See for yourself.
I am not going to copy and paste, it is the same every one already read or copied. Just 'eat more fruits, do not eat salt, take off sugar and soda,' and so on and on and on. What is most important in all those publications, why doctors recommend DASH diet and do not wee, how DASH diet similar to any other diet? BTW, how DASH diet can be really good for any one of us?

calls for a certain number of servings daily from various food groups. The number of servings you require may vary, depending on how many calories you need per day.

Sorry, regardless what job I do or life style I have to lead or any even my age or health condition, I have to eat the same amount of calories as any other women, 26 or 96 years old does not matter, right?  Remember, the amount of calories recommended by Medical Care does not adjust any difference between woman, but only man or woman. Really I do not remember the amount, I think it is 1200 for me. At least ADA recommend take Starvation diet as 600 calories to get rid of diabetes type 2.

You can make gradual changes. For instance, start by limiting yourself to 2,400 milligrams of sodium per day (about 1 teaspoon). Then, once your body has adjusted to the diet, cut back to 1,500 milligrams of sodium per day (about 2/3 teaspoon). These amounts include all sodium eaten, including sodium in food products as well as in what you cook with or add at the table.

Did they see teaspoon?  So, what I suppose to do? Simple say, take off any salt from your kitchen. I do have some salt in bread or milk I add to my coffee. So, it is already higher then 2/3 teaspoon. The question is , if salt is so danger for us, humans, then why it is all the time added in every product we buy? Simple take it off. Not at all. No one add Arsenic to meal. It is Danger, it is Poison. But poisoning salt added to every product we buy, even milk and eggs already salted with meal the animals fed.

 Instead of snacking on chips or sweets, eat unsalted pretzels or nuts, raisins, low-fat and fat-free yogurt, frozen yogurt, unsalted plain popcorn with no butter, and raw vegetables.

What is interesting about these snacks that why we do need them in first place? Because of according to DASH diet we have to limit our meat "Limit meat to 6 ounces a day." The question is, would this diet sustain daily activity we do have to perform, our job and duty? So, we eat "Make some meals vegetarian" and then what? We got bigger and bigger, and bigger. Just take a look at what animals have bigger bodies, those who eat meet or those who eat veggie? Elephants? Tigers? Wolves?

       Meat, poultry, and fish: 2 or less daily servings

       Fats and oils: 2-3 daily servings

       Sweets: try to limit to less than 5 servings per week

I would take it, if they will show how many calories I spend every day in my daily activity. They never do. It is usually proudly pointed out, "Adjust" and no one idea how to adjust all those servings, calories, and green salads to every one of us, with different jobs we do, health condition we do live with, and so so on. Still, they present it will reduce my high blood pressure. Say me, if there will be any difference in my diet they will present it will reduce my very high blood sugar numbers? Or, simple, if one has no one issue with health, no diabetes, no high blood pressure, would be diet different? Just check it up. And if diet is the same, then there is nothing to worry about diet, DASH or any other type of it. It is nothing about blood pressure or diabetes. It is simple way to collect money.

 1/2 cup cooked rice or pasta --- what amount of working hours of Bus driver it is cover?s this different for man or woman? How it is different for office worker? What about teacher? Does teacher who today has day off must take the same amount of cooked rise, or it is must be different somehow?

1 cup raw vegetables or fruit --- How many apples must construction worker eat to be good to cover one hour working?For 8 hours work? What if he has overtime to work?

3 ounces cooked meat --- with this diet would home worker be able to take work out in Bally Fitness club after 12 hours working day and taking responsibility for two teen sons?

8 ounces of milk --- how many cup of coffee woman will take if she took cottage cheese as her first daily meal?

I do not need DASH diet. I need insulin, Lantus Solo Star. I do use my understanding about all dieting. If I am hungry, I eat. If I am way too hungry, extremely hungry, I take insulin shot before my first bite. Simple. I can count dose of insulin I have to inject, I am very comfortable with this. When I am getting hungry, take more food then I really took recently, I just add insulin in injection. Works for me. If I do have low blood sugar, I take insulin shot before take any meal. Yes, it is not mistake. I take insulin shot when sugar is high, and I take insulin shot when sugar is low. Odd? Not at all. Diabetes is not about blood sugar how it is high or low. Diabetes is about level of insulin in blood. Level of insulin can be low when blood sugar is high and the same low when blood sugar is low. I cannot take reading of level of insulin in my blood. My glucose meter show only level of sugar in my blood. So regarding the level of sugar I take dose of insulin, does not matter sugar is low or high.
