People with diabetes can eat the same foods as the rest of the
family. In fact, you can eat your favorite sweets and treats. That's
a relief! Choosing foods you like and eating reasonable portions
are great ways to keep your blood sugar on track and reach your
target weight. |
Here are a few eating tips:
| • |
|
Eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. |
| |
|
|
| • |
|
Make grains, starches, cereals, and potatoes a central focus
of your meals. |
| |
|
|
| • |
|
Eat small servings of meat, fish, and poultry. |
| |
|
|
| • |
|
Use fats -- oil, butter -- sparingly. |
| |
|
|
| • |
|
Split sweets and treats with a friend or family member. |
| |
|
|
| • |
|
See a dietitian for your own meal plan. |
