Certified diabetes educator gives meal advice
By CARI.A THOMPSON
Herald Staff'Writer
After having a cousin go
blind at the age of 49 and die at
the age of 53 from Type I dia-
betes. Harvey Baber became in-
terested in treating the disease.
Baber, a registered nurse, cer-
tified diabetes educator and li-
censed dietician, said approxi-
mately I7 to 18 million people
in the United States have dia-
betes and half of them don't
even know it.
"Most people will stay in de-
nial until they just absolutely
can't any more." Baber said.
Baber said he prefers to see
patients one on one because
what treatment works for one
person may not work for anoth-
er.
"I have personally seen a guy
eat a whole plate of fried pota-
toes and it didn't affect him."
Baber said. "So your diet should
be personalized. What works for
you may not work for the lady in
the next office."
One suggestion Baber gave
was to check blood sugar after
eating different foods to see how
sugar effecs the blood.
Baber said that behavior
modification and portion size
rather than content is the best
way to combat diabetes.
"Cut down on breakfast if
you know you're going to eat
more at lunch, or eat an apple
when you get home instead of
leftover macaroni salad." Baber
said.
On a holiday Baber suggests
hav ing up to 70 to 80 carbohy-
drates for one meal. On an aver-
age day, non-pregnant adults
should have 145 to 150 carbs per
day.
When planning July 4 cook-
outs. Baber suggested eating an
open face burger, or leave out
the bread entirely and try a
Spinach Orange Salad instead of
potato salad or chips. When
making these simple modifica-
tions to a meal, the carbohy-
drates are low enough to add a
piece of New York Cheesecake.
Baber said to wait three to
four hours between servings and
avoid concentrated sweets.
Baber, along with John Suggs
of Plymouth Drug, hosts dia-
betes support groups twice a
month at the Diabetes Education.
Center at 27 N. Main.
Baber opened the education
center in January and office vis-
its have went up 50 percent
sense May.
Baber visits between 25 and
30 patients on home visits and
85 to 100 patients in the center
per month to provide diabetes
care and education.
Suggs said that approximate-
ly 30 people attend the monthly
support group meetings.
