Diet control method for senile diabetes: First, determine the total daily calories required according to age, sex and daily activity. Then, on the basis of total calories, the proportion of nutrients and the distribution of calories in restaurants are determined.

total daily calories required: under normal rest conditions, adults are given 1.14.5 ~ 1.25.4 joules of calories per kilogram of body weight per day, and those with heavy activity are given 1.46.3 ~ 1.67.2 joules per kilogram of body weight per day, which can be appropriately increased or decreased according to their body size.

Distribution ratio of food ingredients: protein: 1 ~ 1.5g/kg body weight per day;

fat: 1 ~ 1.2g/kg body weight per day;

carbohydrates: the calories of protein and fat are subtracted from the total calories, and the insufficient part is supplemented by sugar.

calculation method: total calories = body weight × (114.5 ~ 219 kJ);

protein = weight × (1-1.5g);

fat content = body weight × (1-1.2g);

sugar = total calories-fat-protein.

According to the living habits of Chinese people, the amount of sugary staple food (rice and noodles) is about 251-511g per day, and diabetics should control the staple food, that is, control the calorie supply of sugar. General rough calculation, the daily rice and flour food will be controlled at about 251 ~ 311 grams. In this way, the energy deficiency can be supplemented by complementary food. Can give lean meat, fish eggs, beans, milk, vegetables, vegetable oil and so on.
