The 3 Biggest Lies About Type 2 Diabetes 關於二型糖尿病的3個最大謊言

Managing your blood sugar is hard enough. The myths around it make it even harder. Here are three common misconceptions that stop people from getting better control over their blood sugar and what the science actually says:
❌ “I can’t eat fruits.”
✔️ You can enjoy fruit. Eating small amount of low Glycemic Index (GI) fruits such as berries, stone fruits, and citrus) is totally okay. Also, pairing fruit with meals or protein helps keep blood sugar steadier, and the fiber in whole fruits actually supports better glucose control.
❌ “I have to cut out all carbs for my diabetes.”
✔️ You don’t need to eliminate carbs completely from your diet. Carbohydrates affect blood sugar, but the type, portion, the order you eat them, and what you do afterward all matters. Choosing fiber-rich carbs and pairing them with protein and healthy fats helps prevent spikes. Also, insulin resistance is the true root cause of type 2 diabetes, which is caused by too much saturated fat, not carbohydrates alone.
❌ “Type 2 Diabetes can’t be reversed.”
✔️ While diabetes isn’t cured overnight, many people significantly improve blood sugar control and insulin sensitivity through sustainable lifestyle changes. With consistent habits and medical guidance, A1c levels can improve, medications may be reduced, and energy can return. I was able to successfully help many clients lower their A1c from 10+ down to less than 6. So it’s definitely doable!

控制血糖已經夠難了。而圍繞血糖的種種誤解更是雪上加霜。以下是三個常見的誤解, 它們阻礙人們更好地控制血糖, 而科學的真相是這樣的：
❌ “我不能吃水果。”
✔️ 你可以享用水果。少量食用低升糖指數（GI）的水果 (例如莓果, 桃子, 杏和柑橘類水果) 是可以吃的。此外, 水果餐後吃或配搭蛋白質類食物一起吃, 有助於保持血糖穩定, 而且水果中的膳食纖維有助於更好地控制血糖。
❌ “我必須完全戒掉碳水來控製糖尿病。”
✔️ 您無需完全從飲食中去除碳水。碳水確實會影響血糖, 但碳水的種類, 攝取量, 進食順序以及餐後的活動都很重要。選擇富含膳食纖維的碳水, 並與蛋白質和健康脂肪搭配食用, 有助於防止血糖飆升。此外, 胰島素抗性才是二型糖尿病的真正根本原因, 而胰島素阻抗是由過多的飽和脂肪引起的, 並非僅由碳水化合物引起。
❌ “第2型糖尿病無法逆轉。”
✔️ 雖然糖尿病無法一夜之間治愈, 但許多人透過持續的健康生活方式改變, 可以顯著改善血糖控制和胰島素敏感性。透過堅持良好的生活習慣和接受專業的醫療指導. A1c水平可以得到改善, 藥物劑量可以減少, 精力也會恢復。我曾成功幫助許多客戶將A1c水平從10以上降至6以下。所以絕對是可行的！
