Diabetes diet

Eating to fight diabetes.

Carbohydrates are considered a primary cause of type 2 diabetes. It’s important to have a food plan and to understand which foods are better than others in terms of their Glycemic Index (GI) and your blood-sugar level. You need a detailed eating plan, but there are some general recommendations that any diabetes patient can follow.

 

Sergey Kalitenko MD’s suggestions:

  • Increase your intake of high-fiber foods, legumes, onions and garlic.
  • Eat complex carbohydrates like potatoes and rice in moderation.
  • AVOID fats, especially saturated and trans fats.
  • AVOID processed carbs like juices, candies, cookies, soda, and so on.
  • Watch your calories and your weight!
