If you have diabetes but want to relax with an cocktail, most experts agree that you should avoid sugary concoctions that are loaded with carbohydrates.
Up until now, that might have been a challenge but more and more alcohol companies are adding low carb and low sugar spirits to their offerings.
Smirnoff Zero Sugar Infusionsfeature zero sugar, and 100% flavor. Each of these new Zero Sugar Infusions clocks in at just 72 calories per 1.5 oz serving—with zero grams of carbohydrates, zero grams of fat, and zero grams of sugar
Cucumber & Lime is infused with the crisp, cool flavor of a fresh cucumber paired with the bright citrus notes of lime. Simply serve in a stemless wine glass with ice, splash in some soda, garnish with cucumber slices and a lime wedge, and you’re done!
Strawberry & Rose is infused with the delicate & slightly sweet strawberry flavor with a light rose petal finish. Simply serve in a stemless wine glass with ice, splash in some soda, garnish with rose petals and a strawberry, and you’re done!
Watermelon & Mint is infused with juicy watermelon flavor balanced with the taste of fresh mint for a refreshing finish. Simply serve in a stemless wine glass with ice, splash in some soda, garnish with watermelon slices and a mint sprig, and you’re done!
Moderation is key in drinking alcohol whether you have diabetes or not. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends women should have no more than one alcoholic beverage per day, and men should consume no more than two. One drink equals 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1 1/2 ounces spirits.
Consuming alcohol can cause your blood sugars to drop (hypoglycemia) as well as liver damage, particularly if you drink in excess, and/or you drink on an empty stomach. Speak to your doctor for guidance on what is best for you.

Blood pressure is the single most important number for people with diabetes to know according to Diabetes – What To Know‘s website.
High blood pressure is a common disease that develops when blood flows through your arteries at higher-than-normal pressures.
A person with diabetes and high blood pressure is four times as likely to develop heart disease than someone who does not have either of the conditions. About two-thirds of adults with diabetes have blood pressure greater than 130/80 mm Hg or use prescription medications for hypertension.
“I was diagnosed with high blood pressure 6 years after I wrote my first DASH diet book. So I know what it’s like to help manage blood pressure with diet, ” writes Rosanne Rust, MS, RDN, Author of the new DASH Diet for Two cookbook. “It’s full of recipes that I have cooked for my family. You’ll enjoy 125 healthy recipes that can fit into a DASH lifestyle that helps lower blood pressure.”
The DASH diet has been ranked Best Diet Overall for eight years in a row by U.S. News and World Report.
“I like using the 80/20 rule for eating well,” says DASH Diet for Two Cookbook Author Rosanne Rust, MS, RDN.
“I just want you to try sticking to the eating style most of the time (meaning 80 percent or more). It includes a variety of food, including meatless meals, poultry, pork and beef recipes, sides, salads and dessert.”

You usually don’t have symptoms from high blood pressure until it has caused serious health problems. That is why it is important to have your blood pressure checked regularly. Your doctor will diagnose you with high blood pressure if you have consistently high blood pressure readings.
We’re talking about movie characters with diabetes including Steel Magnolias, Soul Food, Mad Money, The Baby-Sitter Club and Nothing In Common on Divabetic’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast with music from 2Cellos.

Tonight, we’re talking about popular movie characters with diabetes on August’s Diabetes Late Nite podcast with music from 2Cellos’ album, Score, on Tuesday, August 11, 2020 at 6 PM, EST.
In the film, Soul Food (1997), the character, Mother Joe (played by Irma P. Hall) is the force that keeps her family together until she suffers a stroke and falls into a coma after surgery for lower limb amputation.The character is assumed to be living with type 2 diabetes.
She shares pages of calorie, fat and carb counts for traditional Southern dishes, as well as how to read labels and sample meal menus. Most chapters in this book end with a “For Your Spirit” section where spiritual principles and biblical allegories remind readers of their inner resources. These passages may also bolster confidence and commitment to meet the challenges of diabetes self-care.
“Many members of my family have diabetes and years ago when someone got it, all I associated with it was amputation,” says Constance Brown-Riggs in an interview with A Sweet Life.
“As I became more educated and started learning about nutrition, I realized that doesn’t have to be the outcome of having diabetes. Unfortunately, a great many people aren’t educated about food, nutrition and healthy eating, particularly if they were raised, as so many African Americans are, on traditional Southern cooking.”
Constance created the Diabetes Soul Food Pyramid to show people how to fit them into the USDA Food Pyramid. She includes the proper portion sizes of foods like fried chicken, collard greens and sweet potatoes.

There’s a good indication that murder might be part of the recipe when Nantucket’s ten time reigning Baking Champion’s last name is ‘Coffin’. But resentment, greed and Britannia’s own bad dealings turn everyone into a suspect when she’s found dead in the parking lot just before the Annual Decadents on Deck! Bake Off competition is about to kick off.
Delusional baker and amateur sleuth Mr. Divabetic is even shocked to find himself being treated as a suspect in the case by the local police, after meeting her just once!
As if his life wasn’t crazy enough before, escaping a murderous mishap in New York and attempting a fresh start in Nantucket has turned into a complete and utter baking disaster, now Max, along with his friends and nosy mother, have to add tracking down a murderer to his To-Do list, as well.
Can our team hunt down the real murderer before they strike again? Will he become the next victim? Can Max ever manage to bake a cake that’s actually edible?

Can you solve Divabetic’s Mystery Phrase #32? Our phrase helps you and your doctor understand your eating habits.
Are you interested in changing your eating habits?
Maybe you should consider keeping a food diary. A food diary is a daily log of what you eat and drink each day. It can help you realize what you consume. Once you know this, you can make changes to your diet to improve your weight.
You should keep your food diary with you throughout the day. You can keep track on paper using a notebook or on your smartphone.
Once you have your diary, you should log several pieces of information in it each time you eat and drink. According to FamilyDoctor.Org you should include these include:
How much. List the amount of the food and drink you consume each time. This might be measured in volume (such as 1/2 cup), weight (such as 2 ounces), or the number of items (such as 12 chips).
What kind. Write down the type of food and drink. Make sure to to write down extras, such as toppings, sauces, dressings, or condiments.
Mood: You also should include how you feel when you eat and drink. Are you happy, sad, or bored? Your mood can impact what and when you eat or drink.
Food journaling apps are a quick and easy way to track your food intake throughout the day. Whatever your personal nutritional goals are, rest assured that there is an app to help make those goals achievable.

Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes are a delicious meal or snack replacement with no added sugar! With 60% more protein and a cleaner label than other shakes, Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes deliver the nutrition you need to help manage your blood sugar.
These shakes contain a unique blend of slow-digesting carbohydrates, quality protein and healthy fat in each 8-ounce serving, which several leading registered dietitians suggest may help you manage your blood sugars – and help reduce blood sugar spikes, too.
Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes are sweetened with zero-calorie Splenda sucralose and are packed with protein from microfiltered milk protein, a high-quality protein that, due to filtration, is higher in protein and lower in milk sugar than traditional milk.
Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes contain 60% more protein than many of the leading shakes; specifically, each 8-ounce shake provides 170 calories, 15 grams of carbohydrate, 16 grams of protein and 6 grams of fiber.
“They taste really good! I’ve never found any meal replacement products to be effective for me in the past. However, these shakes actually do seem to work as appetite suppressants for me,” wrote C. Spurgeon on Amazon.
“I compare the taste to Glucerna and it isn’t as good. I assume it meets the nutritional requirements for diabetes and it is less expensive than Glucerna,” wrote Judy J. on Amazon.
Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes Are Available in 3 flavors:
Milk Chocolate: a rich and velvety chocolate profile
French Vanilla: a perfect smooth and creamy milkshake
Strawberry Banana: a tasty balance of both strawberry and banana.
Splenda Diabetes Care Shakes are grab-and-go breakfast option and/or a snack in-between meals.
