It is recommend to engage in 150 minutes of moderate physical activity every week. Examples of moderate physical activity include brisk walking, jogging, pilates, indoor cycling, dancing, yoga, strength training, and swimming. Sometimes very intense exercise, such as HIIT workouts, can temporarily raise your blood immediately following the workout. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/a7e64b70-dfa0-4bca-b3f5-74650b8ddae4/water+cups.jpeg Blog - 5 Tips To Improve Your Blood Sugar Levels - Make it stand out Hydration is so important for many reasons… and controlling blood your sugar is one of them. Some studies have found that those with poor hydration were more likely to have increased blood sugar levels. I would recommend around 8 cups of water daily. If you are exercising, spending time in hot weather, or are taking certain medications you may need even more fluids. If you are someone who does not like the taste of water, try adding fruit or a dash of juice to plain water or carbonated water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/093eba8f-917d-45df-8048-d3f59f0ae5be/getting-fiber-without-excessive-gas-722x406.jpeg Blog - 5 Tips To Improve Your Blood Sugar Levels - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/be76e55b-794d-4447-a61d-2dc770ee084d/non+starchy+vegetables.jpg Blog - 5 Tips To Improve Your Blood Sugar Levels - Make it stand out You might hear dietitians refer to non-starchy vegetables as a “free food” when it comes to eating while managing high blood sugars. This is because you can eat a large amount of non-starchy vegetables without it affecting your blood sugar levels. Plus vegetables (obviously) provide an incredible amount of health benefits. When creating a meal, I would recommend making about half your plate non-starchy vegetables. Examples of non-starchy vegetables include: asparagus, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumber, lettuce, tomato, mushroom, bell pepper, and zucchini. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/2495e86a-f587-4384-b6cb-4e462b0474aa/healthy+fats.jpg Blog - 5 Tips To Improve Your Blood Sugar Levels - Make it stand out Protein and fat are slower to digest than carbohydrates. That is why pairing carbohydrate sources with a protein or fat source prevents a spike in blood sugar, because they help to delay the absorption of carbohydrates into the bloodstream. I recommend choosing lean and healthy sources of protein and fat, such as fish, tofu, nuts, seeds, avocado, olive oil, egg whites, skinless chicken, and plant based or non-fat greek yogurt. An example of this is adding almond butter (fat/protein) to toast (carbohydrate), avocado (healthy fat) to crackers (carbohydrate), or having a piece of fish (protein/fat) with sweet potatoes (carbohydrate). https://www.saradortnutrition.com/blog/blog-post-title-one-4846g monthly 0.5 2022-05-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/e3832671-d5f5-4e2d-97e3-e9617c248272/B80138F2-21F2-4583-B412-DE89A505DC18.jpg Blog - How to build the perfect meal. - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.saradortnutrition.com/home daily 1.0 2023-05-11 https://www.saradortnutrition.com/about daily 0.75 2022-05-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6251f969951d491959c834f9/b0e3309e-356f-4a76-a27b-eefd92692d64/Chef+Dort+-040.jpg About - Hi there, my name is Sara. I am a registered dietitian living in New York City. I grew up in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. During my teenage years, I struggled with a few health problems that led me to my interest in nutrition. I studied Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Georgia, where I also competed on the Cross County and Track team. I moved to New York City after college to complete my Dietetic Internship and Masters of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics at New York University. I have several years of experience working with individuals to manage chronic disease with nutrition. I truly believe food is medicine (duh I’m a dietitian!), but I also think movement, stress, sleep and other environmental factors play a huge role in our health and wellness. These are topics I will also touch on during our sessions together. I am excited to work with you to help you reach your health and nutrition goals!
