What foods are good for type 2 diabetes?

Fiber is key! And keeping an eye on portion sizes for everything.

I totally get how confusing it can be to figure out what to eat with type 2 diabetes. My friend manages it with lots of green leafy vegetables, lean proteins like dal and paneer, and small portions of whole grains. It's about consistency and understanding what works for YOUR body.

Namaste! For type 2 diabetes, the main thing is to avoid refined carbs and sugary foods. Focus on high-protein options like chicken, fish, eggs, and pulses. Lots of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and capsicum are your best friends. And remember to keep hydrated.

Managing my diabetes means being very careful with food. I stick to complex carbs like ragi and jowar, and make sure to have a good amount of protein with every meal. Always check the glycemic index of foods. And never skip your meds, food is just one part of management.

As a working professional, I need quick and healthy options. For type 2 diabetes, I always make sure my lunch and dinner have a good portion of salad or cooked veggies. Quinoa or millets instead of rice are good. Keep some nuts or a fruit for quick snacks to avoid sugary cravings. Planning is key.
