With damage to the nervous system, a person with diabetes may not be able to feel his or her feet properly. Normal sweat secretion and oil production that lubricates the skin of the foot is impaired. These factors together can lead to abnormal pressure on the skin, bones, and joints of the foot during walking and can lead to breakdown of the skin of the foot. Sores may develop.
Here is a basic meal plan that anyone can expand upon. You can’t go wrong if you stick with whole grains, fresh vegetables and fruits, and other sugar free low carbohydrate products. Hemp milk doesn’t get you high. Instead, it is loaded with Omega 3 and 6’s, and high in antioxidants, and best of all, it has no sugar, cholesterol and carbohydrates and has zero calories.
