Can patients with cerebral infarction and high blood sugar consume whole grains?

Patients with cerebral infarction and high blood sugar can eat whole grains, but should pay attention to the following points: 1. Nutritional advantages: Whole grains are rich in B vitamins, dietary fiber, and carbohydrates, which help regulate metabolism, improve physical condition, and provide energy required by the body. 2. Moderate consumption: Although whole grains are beneficial to health, excessive intake may cause elevated blood sugar due to their carbohydrate content. Therefore, they should be consumed in moderation to avoid overconsumption. 3. Cooking methods: For patients with high blood sugar, whole grains should not be cooked into porridge or liquid/semi-liquid foods in order to reduce blood sugar fluctuations. Steaming or boiling is recommended. 4. Individual differences: Patients should adjust their diet according to their own medical condition and physician's advice. If there are obvious gastrointestinal symptoms or kidney dysfunction, intake of legumes and other whole grains should be avoided or reduced.
