Eat a well-balanced diet. Since there is no official diabetes diet, it's important that you handle your condition by eating a healthy diet that is high in fruits, vegetables and lean meats and low in fat, sugar and simple carbohydrates. If you eat everything in moderation and are controlling your diabetes through medication, you should have fairly stable blood glucose levels.
Even though salads are a healthy option for people with Diabetes, you should be careful about the salad dressing. Dressing can contain a large amount of sodium and fat, which may cause your blood sugar to fluctuate outside of the normal range. Oil and vinegar based dressings tend to be healthier. As a suggestion, ask for the dressing to be served on the side, so that you can control how much you eat.
Look online to find common replacements for cooking ingredients which aren't good for a Diabetic. For example, fruit can be used in place of sugar, as in a sugar free banana bread or muffins. You can also use whole grain flours instead of bleached, or buckwheat instead of rice in a dish. |
