1 Nutrition and Diabetes How to be an effective resource for patients behind the counter And pass the CDE Exam! Diabetes Smart Program March 20, 2016

2 OBJECTIVES To review the principles of nutrition therapy for diabetes management To review some practice exam questions To provide some real-life examples, teaching tips and survival tools!

3 Table of Contents (90 slides) Nutrition therapy and recommendations Carbohydrates Sweeteners Glycemic Index Distribution of CHO, Fat and Protein Meal Planning Basic Advanced Carb Counting The BTB Poster Nutrition Labels Sample Exam Questions Useful Tools behind the Counter Anything in RED know for the Exam.

4 NUTRITION THERAPY Clinical Practice Guidelines Integral part of the treatment and selfmanagement of diabetes Goals To maintain or improve quality of life and nutritional and physiological health To prevent and treat acute and long-term complications of diabetes, associated comorbid conditions and concomitant disorders

5 NUTRITION THERAPY Can reduce A1C by 1.0 to 2.0% When used with other components of diabetes care, can further improve clinical and metabolic outcomes Can have significant impact on postprandial blood glucose levels in particular

6 NUTRITION RECOMMENDATIONS Nutrition recommendations for people with diabetes are generally the same as for all Canadians Based on the principles of Canada s Guidelines for Healthy Eating: Enjoy a variety of foods Emphasize cereals, breads and other whole grain products, vegetables and fruits Choose lower-fat dairy products, leaner meats and foods prepared with little or no fat Achieve and maintain a healthy body weight by enjoying regular physical activity and healthy eating Limit salt, alcohol and caffeine eng.pdf 6

7 EATING WELL WITH CANADA S FOOD GUIDE Summarizes nutrient needs and nutritional guidelines for all healthy Canadians Daily serving recommendations by age and gender Can be used by people with diabetes to make healthy food choices Foods should be low in energy density to: promote satiety and discourage overconsumption Help achieve and maintain a healthy body weight Ensure an adequate intake of CHO, fibre, essential fatty acids, proteins, vitamins and minerals

8

9 BALANCED APPROACH Moderate carbohydrate Protein choice at meals Small serving of heart healthy fat Include together at all meals Mixed meals have the slowest BG response

10 Distribution of Macronutrients EXAM! MACRONUTRIENTDISTRIBUTION MACRONUTRIENT % OF TOTAL CALORIES Carbohydrate 45-60% Fat 20-35% Protein 15-20%

11 WHAT IS CARBOHYDRATE (CHO)? TOTAL CHO = SUGAR + STARCH + DIETARY FIBRE

12 WHY IS CHO IMPORTANT? Total amount of carbohydrate (CHO) eaten is the main factor that increases blood glucose (BG) levels Self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) two hours after meals allows you to observe the connection between CHO and BG levels To best control CHO intake: control the total amount from sugars and starches choose foods of medium and low glycemic index (GI)

13 CARBOHYDRATE RECOMMENDATIONS 2013 CPGs suggest: Include vegetables, fruit, whole grains and milk Within the same food category, consume low glycemic index foods in place of high glycemic index foods Increase dietary fibre to g/day from a variety of sources, including soluble and cereal fibre Sucrose (table sugar) intake of up to 10% of total daily energy is acceptable Up to 60g of added fructose (e.g. fructosesweetened beverages and foods) in place of an equal amount of sucrose is acceptable

14 Artificial Sweetenersand SugarAlcohols Intake of < 10 g/day of sugar alcohols is acceptable Use of artificial sweeteners is acceptable Need to memorize the guidelines for how much artificial sweetener is acceptable (based on mg/kg/day).

15 Memorize Per these guidelines, it would be acceptable for a 70kg man to ingest up to 2800mg of aspartame per day. What does this mean to the 70kg man? 22.4 cans of diet coke per day.

16 Stevia Per these guidelines, it would be acceptable for a 70 kg man can ingest up to mg (70 g) of erythritol per day 1 pkg of Truvia = 3 g (3000 mg) of Erythritol. 70 g is allowed divided by 3 g is a pkg of Truvia = 23.3 packets per day.

17 GLYCEMIC INDEX (GI) Scale that ranks CHO-rich foods by how much they raise blood glucose levels compared to a standard food Standard used can be glucose or white bread Eating foods with a low glycemic (GI) can: Decrease postprandial BG levels Improve glycemic control Improve lipid profile and emerging CVDfactors Have a role in the prevention and management of obesity because of a satiety factor Canadian Diabetes Association. 17

18 GLYCEMIC INDEX (GI) GI > 70 GI < 55 White bread White bagel Bran Flakes /CF / RK Minute Rice Potato French Fries Pretzels Rice cakes Pumpernickel All Bran / Bran Buds / Oat Bran Parboiled or converted rice Pasta/noodles Sweet potato Legumes

19 FACTORS THAT AFFECT GLYCEMIC INDEX Cooking increases GI of food: Cooking swells the starch molecules and makesthem easier to digest. Al-dente pasta has lower GI. Processing: More refined a product is, the higher the GI Fat Content: Higher the fat content, the lower its GI because fat tendsto slow down digestion of these foods Acid Content Acid present in food slows down digestion of foods consumed at the same meal. Adding lemon juice or vinegar to a salad will help lower GI of meal.

20 The Canadian Diabetes Association Reference Tool:

21 Distribution of Macronutrients MACRONUTRIENTDISTRIBUTION MACRONUTRIENT % OF TOTAL CALORIES Carbohydrate 45-60% Fat < 35% Protein 15-20%

22 FAT AND PROTEIN RECOMMENDATIONS 2013 CPGs suggest: Restrict saturated fats to < 7% of total daily energy intake and restrict trans fat intake to a minimum Limit polyunsaturated fat to < 10% of energy intake and monounsaturated fats to < 20% of energy intake Consume monounsaturated fats instead of saturated fats more often Include foods rich in polyunsaturatedomega-3 fatty acids and plant oils No evidence to suggest that usual recommended protein intake should be modified

23 Good Fat, Bad Fat

24 DIABETES MEAL PLANNING Basic diabetes meal planning involves consistent amounts of CHO at meals Canada s Food Guide Plate Method Handy Portion Guide More advanced diabetes meal planning allows for flexibility in meal planning Beyond the Basics Carbohydrate Counting (Basic and Advanced)

25

26 How does your platelook? Most people have a plate with ½ CHO and ½ PRO and NO veggies! And how big is your dinner plate? Usually a bread and butter plate is a better size for a full meal. VS

27 HANDY PORTION GUIDE

28 Other common objects

29 More advanced meal planning Need to know: q Calorie requirements per day q Recommended calorie distribution for CHO, Fat and Protein q Amount of calories in 1 g of CHO, Fat, Protein and Alcohol q 15 g of CHO = 1 CHO choice

30 Distribution of Macronutrients EXAM! MACRONUTRIENTDISTRIBUTION MACRONUTRIENT % OF TOTAL CALORIES Carbohydrate 45-60% Fat 20-35% Protein 15-20%

31 How many kcal per gram? 1g of Fat has 9kcal 1g of Protein has 4kcal 1g of CHO has 4kcal 1g of alcohol has 7kcal

32 % OF TOTAL CALORIES 45-60%CHO (Avg = 50%) Why is this important? For a 2000 calorie diet Advanced Meal Planning is MATH Step 1: 2,000 cal x 50% CHO = 1000 cal from CHO/day Step 2: 1,000 CHO cal divided by 4 cal/g CHO= 250 g CHO /day Step 3: 250 g CHO/15 g of CHO = round to CHO choices per day divided in meals and snacks 20-35%FAT (Avg = 30%) 15-20% PRO Avg = 20% Step 1: 2000 cal x 30% Fat = 600 calories/day from Fat Step 2: 600 fat calories divided by 9 cal/g Fat = 66.7 = 67 g FAT/day g 67 g of Fat is divided among meals and snacks/day Step 1: 2000 cal x 20% PRO = 400 calories/day from Protein Step 2: 400 protein calories divided by 4 cal/ g PRO = 100 g PRO/day 100 g of PROTEIN is divided among meals ands snacks/day

33 THE CHO PRESCRIPTION Patient requires 2000 calories per day 50% of calories as CHO 2000 calories x 50% = 1000 calories = 250 grams CHO per day 250 g 15 g of Cho = 17 CHO choices Distribute 17 CHO choices over meals and snacks

34 Meal CHO choices g of CHO Food Choices Breakfast small bagel, ½ cup OJ Snack 2 30 Small banana, ¾ c yogourt Lunch slices WW bread, 30 grapes Snack cups air- popped popcorn Dinner cup rice, 1 cup peas Snack cup LF milk, 3 arrowroots Total

35 MEAL PLANNING CHO COUNTING Two Approaches: 1. BASIC: CHO targets particularly for those people not using meal time insulin 1. ADVANCED: matching insulin to carbohydrate intake particularly for those people on rapid-acting insulin at meal time and those using insulin pump

36 BASIC CARBOHYDRATE COUNTING CHO TARGETS Individual variation: 150g 300g / day 45g 60g per meal: Women 60g 75g per meal: Men 15g 30g at HS if needed

37 BEYOND THE BASICS Meal planning system based on 15 g carbohydrate choices 1 serving = 15 g CHO or 1 carbohydrate choice Minimum of 3-4 choices per meal 1-2 choices per snack Canadian Diabetes Association.

38 For the exam understand and memorize the BTB Poster! Order your copy here: desc

39 Left side of the Poster lists CHO containing food: Grains & Starches Fruits Milk & Alternatives Other Choices 1 serving = 15 g CHO or 1 CHO choice

40 Other Choices (sweet foods and snacks)

41 Add favourite foods -

42 Count the carbs in these vegetables: Parsnips, Peas and Winter Squash provide 15 g of CHO per cup

43 Count the carbs in legumes - peas and beans 1 cup provides 15 g of CHO

44 Fats do not containcho

45 CARBOHYDRATE- CONTAINING FOOD GROUPS Grains & Starches Fruits Milk & Alternatives Other Choices (Sweet Foods and Snacks) 1 Serving = 15 g CHO or 1 CHO choice

46 FOOD GROUPS THAT DO NOT CONTAIN CHO Vegetables (most) Meat & Alternatives Fats Parsnip, peas and winter squash provide 15 g of available CHO when 250ml (1 cup) is eaten

47 CHOOSE MOREOFTEN 1 mediumapple ½ cup unsweetened applesauce 1 smallbanana 2 cups blackberries, strawberries 1 cup blueberries 15 cherries 15 grapes 2 medium kiwi 1 mediumorange ½ canned in fruit in juice FRUITS CHOOSE LESS OFTEN ¼ cup mixed dried fruit ½ cup juice

48 CARBOHYDRATE- CONTAINING FOODS Should we eat all we want of the choose more often choices? NO these foods still contain CHO Important to manage the total amount of carbohydrate that is consumed With regards to carbohydrate, the total quantity is important for day- to- day management of blood glucose, but the quality (GI) is important for long term health benefits.

49 DETERMINING INSULIN-TO- CARBOHYDRATE RATIO Need to determine how many grams of CHO one unit of insulin will cover 500 TDD or 500 (weight in kg 2) Track pattern of insulin dosage, CHO intake and ac and 2 hr pc blood glucose levels

50 ADVANCED CHO COUNTING INSULIN-TO-CARBOHYDRATE RATIO CHO amounts can be varied with rapid insulin at meals (insulin : carbohydrate ratio) Matching insulin to carbohydrate intake Eg. 60 gram CHO meal / 10 units Rapid = 1 unit per 6 grams CHO OR Eg. 60 gram CHO meal / 6 units Rapid = 1 unit per 10 grams CHO

51 NUTRITION LABELS Nutrition label is the most accurate source of nutrition information Food labels can be used to estimate the size of one carbohydrate choice Important things to watch: Portion size Caloriecontent Fat content CHO content Fibre content

52 NUTRITION FACTS Total CHO indicated in grams This number includes sugar, starch and fibre Sugar and fibre might be shown separately Note portion size on label

53 NUTRITION FACTS Dietary fibre is not absorbed and, thus, does not increase BG levels Subtract fibre from total CHO to get available carbohydrate

54 AVAILABLE CARBOHYDRATE How much available carbohydrate is contained in 60g of this product? Answer = 22g 24g 13g = 11g x 2svg = 22g

55 AVAILABLE CARBOHYDRATE And how many carbchoices would this be for someone using the carb-counting method/ Answer = 22g / 15g = ~ 1.5 choices.

87 A PICTURE IS WORTH

88 SUMMARY Nutrition for people living with diabetes can seem very complex and overwhelming Need to simplify the messages and aim to provide consistent information: Regular, balanced meals Lower fat, higher fiber Focus is on controlling total CHO SMBG helps make the connection between food choices and BG levels

89 SUMMARY Pharmacists are uniquely positioned to provide basic nutritional counselling to their patients with diabetes: Reinforce importance of healthy eating to all patients to help with overall glycemic control Nutrition counseling by a Registered Dietitian is recommended for people with diabetes For patients who have yet to see a dietitian, survival nutrition skills information should be presented (i.e. Just the Basics )
