In addition, because ESHA gives more CHO per gram than the exchange diet, it also gives a greater kcal of CHO. What is odd is that ESHA gives less total kcal as compared to the exchange table, while still giving more CHO per gram than the exchange table. This must be accounted for in how ESHA counts protein and fat since protein in ESHA was counted as fewer grams than the exchange table, and more fat in kcal in ESHA than the exchange table. Certain foods were more off or different than others when compared to the table. For example, most fruits were higher than the given 15 grams of CHO in the exchange table, with the exception of peaches being a perfect 15. Milk or soy milk was almost right on with 11.96. Carrots were much higher than 5g of CHO per serving, in ESHA carrots were closer to 12g CHO per serving. Other foods that counted as starches that were not the correct 15g CHO were the hummus, cheerios cereal, chunky peanut butter, and brown rice. All four of the starches were counted lower than the exchange of 15g CHO. Peanut butter being the lowest as five times lower than the expected 15g with only 3g of CHO. On average it appears that most of the starches were counted 5g lower than the expected 15g CHO. The only reasoning I can figure as to why ESHA is off or different is that the ADA exchange is designed for regular people as a sort of rule of thumb and therefore is not perfectly accurate down to the decimal points of calories or carbohydrates. ESHA on the other hand accounts for these minute details of individual foods. In conclusion, ESHA is more accurate but impractical for daily use by the average diabetic. Part Three Essay:I chose to follow diet 5. It was awful. I am supposed to normally eat a 2800 kcal diet as opposed to 3000, so I assumed it would not be very hard to do. It was a struggle, to say the least. The problems that I ran into first were having more calories that I planned for but that these calories were taken up with filling food items rather than simple sugars or fats from sweets and goodies. No fun. In addition, planning in itself was an irritation. I could not eat whatever crossed my view, but had to stick to some sort of program or plan. Aside from planning for more calories, another problem I encountered was forcing myself to eat constantly. I felt like I was always eating because I was a diabetic and this was annoying. I always had to have my little snacks prepared and around, this really irritated me. The main meals did not give me satiety and the snacks did just enough to barely hold me over. Overarching all these problems was that I am supposed to eat a balanced diet with 2800 kcal, around half of my kcal from CHO, and half of those CHO being whole wheat. I realized that I probably do not eat a balanced diet normally and that it is sporadic and poor like many college students. Therefore changing my diet to that of a diabetic diet was a challenge. I imagine over time it becomes easier, but the immediate change to being a diabetic must be a great challenge for many. ................
