However, they each have their differences

Type 1 : typically occurs in children and adolescents, but can occur in adults. This is when the immune system attacks pancreatic beta cells resulting in the inability to produce insulin.

Type 2: Mostly occurs later in life (but can appear in children). Is related to nutritional habits. This is when the pancreas produces insulin, but the body cannot use it effectively. Majority of people with diabetes, have type 2 diabetes.

Dietary Considerations
Weight gain:
- For type 1 diabetics, you may want to avoid weight gain as it can be a potential side effect of intensive insulin therapy.
- can be avoided by decreasing calorie intake by 250 to 300 calories and staying consistent with calories every day
-For type 2 diabetics, losing weight may be the goal as weight loss can help reduce blood sugars to the normal range
- decrease calorie intake, weigh self on regular basis, avoid waiting until last minute to lose weight

Carbohydrate consumption:
-Carbs are the main source of energy, but they can also raise blood sugar levels
-eating a consistent amount of carbohydrate can help control blood sugar levels
- carbohydrate counting, exchange planning, and meal timing can help with controlling the amount of carbohydrates are being consumed

Fat (Quality over quantity):
- saturated fat and trans fat increases risk for coronary heart disease (CHD) while monosaturated and polyunsaturated fats are protective for the most part
- people with diabetes are at increased risk for heart disease and stroke
- eating a diet that is low in saturated and trans fat and cholesterol can help with reducing cholesterol levels and decrease their risk

Alcohol:
- Drinking alcohol in moderation should not affect blood sugar levels significantly
- monitoring blood sugar response to alcohol to determine if there needs to be any changes in insulin doses
- mixers (fruit juice, regular cola) can increase blood sugar levels and increase number of calorie intake
- if mixers are consumed, a dose of insulin may be needed

It's based on eating three meals a day at regular times which helps you better use the insulin that your body produces or gets through a medication. A registered dietician can help you put together a diet based on your health goals, tastes, and lifestyle.
