HOT WEATHER TIPS FOR DIABETICS(CLICK HERE TO PRINT)

---

Extreme heat with diabetes can be dangerous. High heat affects blood glucose levels.  Recently, extreme heat has been reported in the United States and Europe. Heat and moderate to high activity can make you sweat profusely, and people with diabetes may become dehydrated, leading to a rise in glucose levels.  People with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes feel the heat more than people who don’t have diabetes. Here are the reasons why:

• Certain diabetes complications, such as damage to blood vessels and nerves, can affect your sweat glands so your body can’t cool as effectively. That can lead to heat exhaustion and heat stroke, which are medical emergencies.
• People with diabetes get dehydrated (lose too much water from their bodies) more quickly in high heat. Not drinking enough liquids can raise blood glucose, and high blood glucose can make you urinate more, causing dehydration.
• High temperatures and heat can change how your body uses insulin. You may need to test your blood glucose more often and adjust your insulin dose and what you eat and drink.

Even when it doesn’t seem very hot outside, the combination of heat and humidity (moisture in the air) can be dangerous. When sweat evaporates (dries) on your skin, it removes heat and cools you. It’s harder to stay cool in high humidity because sweat can’t evaporate as well.

High temperatures and heat can change how your body uses insulin. You may need to test your blood glucose more often and adjust your insulin dose and what you eat and drink.

It’s always a good idea to check the heat index when temperatures soar—a measurement that combines temperature and humidity. Take steps to stay cool when it reaches 26°C (80°F) in the shade with 40% humidity or above. Usually the heat index can be up to 15°F higher in full sunlight, so stick to the shade when the weather warms up. For example, if the temperature is 32°C (90°F), a high humidity index may make it feel like 40°C (105°F).

Tips for high heat:

• Drink plenty of water—even if you’re not thirsty—so you don’t get dehydrated.
• Avoid alcohol and drinks with caffeine, like coffee and energy or sports drinks. They can lead to water loss and spike your blood glucose levels.
• Check your blood glucose before, during, and after you’re active. You may need to change how much insulin you use. Ask your doctor if you would like help in adjusting your dosage.
• Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, light-colored clothing.
• Wear sunscreen and a hat when you’re outside. Sunburn can raise your blood sugar levels.
• Don’t go barefoot. Protect your feet always!
• Use an air conditioner or go to an air-conditioned building to stay cool. In very high heat, a room fan won’t cool you enough.
• Physical activity is usually associated with reduced need for insulin. The latter may increase the risk for low blood glucose.  in higher temperatures, people are at risk for both low and high blood glucose.

The key in high heat weather is to be vigilant and check your blood glucose often, and seek emergency treatment if necessary.

DIABETIC DAWN PHENOMENON AND KNITTING HEART SACHETS

DESSERTS: COFFEE ICE CREAM (click here to print)

Ingredients

• 2 cups organic heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup almond milk (vanilla, unsweetened)
• 1/4 cup good quality coffee beans
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 egg yolks
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar substitute
• 1/4 tsp xanthan gum (optional but helps consistency)
• 1/8 tsp salt

---

Instructions

1. Combine the coffee beans, heavy cream and almond milk in a medium bowl.
2. Soak for 2 hours, or overnight if you want a stronger flavor.
3. Heat the cream, milk and coffee beans in the microwave for 2 minutes.
4. Strain out the beans.
5. Return the cream mixture to the bowl and add the splenda, vanilla, salt, xanthan gum (if using) and egg yolks – stir well.
6. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir.
7. Microwave for another 30 seconds, stir.
8. Microwave for another 30 seconds, stir.
9. At this point it should be slightly thickened (if not, microwave 30 seconds longer). Pour it through a sieve to remove any lumps, then chill in the freezer for 30 minutes or the refrigerator overnight.
10. When the custard is chilled, run it through an ice cream maker following the manufacturer’s instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, try this method using zip lock bags, ice, and salt to freeze your custard mixture.

Notes

Using organic Heavy Whipping Cream when you can find it will greatly decrease the amount of carbs in this recipe. Not all HWC are created equal – some contain starches to thicken them, which results in higher carbs so be sure to read your labels!
