Example #2
• Case: Mr. B, a 68-year-old retired male, has
T2DM, receiving medications and dietary
treatment. Light physical activity level. Height
1.67M, body weight 75kg.
• Question:
1. Is Mr. B’s body weight normal?
2. How much energy does Mr. B need?
3. How many total exchange servings?
4. Make a meal plan for Mr. B.
Example #2 (contd.)
• Step 1: Mr. B’s ideal body weight is: 167-105=62 kg
The actual body weight is 75 kg. So, his body
weight is above the ideal body weight 20.9%. He is
overweight.
• Step 2: The total energy is: 20kcal/kg×62 kg=1240
kcal. That’s close to 1300 kcal.
• Step 3: According to 1300 kcal level, the total
exchanging servings is 16, of which, 8 for grains, 1
for vegetables, 3 for meats, 2 for dairy, 1.5 for fats.
Example #2 (contd.)
• Step 4: The exchanging servings are distributed
among the three meals according the ratio: 1/5, 2/5
and 2/5.
Breakfast: grains 2 servings, dairy 1 serving, some
vegetable;
Lunch: grains 4 servings, meats 2 servings, some
vegetable and fats (cooking oil);
Diner: grains 2 servings, meats 1 serving, some
vegetable and fats, dairy 1 serving.
Example #2 (contd.)
• Step 5: Resort to the exchanging lists, selecting the
specific food and the amount.

Insulin treatment
Insulin
• Sometimes type 2 diabetes patients also need
insulin treatment.
• There are more than 20 types of insulin.
Oral Medications
• Ketoacidosis
– Develops when the body does not have enough
insulin. The body can’t break down sugar so it
breaks down fat instead. Ketones are what is left
from this process.
• Symptoms that may result in ketoacidosis occur
when:
– Too little insulin has been ejected, or insulin is
not effective.
– Consumed more food and/or exercised less than
expected.
– High blood sugar, high levels of sugar in the
urine, frequent urination, and increased thirst.
