Your food choices matter a lot when you've got diabetes. Some are better than others.
Nothing is completely off-limits. Even items that you might think of as “the worst" could be occasional treats in tiny amounts. But they won’t help you nutrition-wise, and it’s easiest to manage your diabetes if you mainly stick to the best options.
A diet rich in vegetables, fruits, and healthful proteins can have significant benefits for people with diabetes.
Balancing certain foods can help maintain health, improve overall well-being, and prevent future complications.
