For sugar diabetes, you absolutely need a clear diet chart from your doctor or a dietician. General advice is to avoid refined sugar, maida, white rice, and high-fat fried foods. But the specific quantities and exceptions vary for everyone. Please get professional guidance, it's very important.

Namaste. With sugar diabetes, it is wise to avoid foods that quickly raise your blood sugar. Refined carbohydrates like white bread, sugary drinks, and excessive sweets are best minimized. Focus on whole grains, plenty of vegetables, and mindful eating. Regular pranayama also helps in managing stress which impacts blood sugar.

When my husband got diabetes many years ago, it felt like the end of all good food! But honestly, it's about making smart choices. Cut out all added sugar, reduce white rice, and maida. Eat more complex carbs like bajra, jowar. It takes time, but it's very much manageable, don't worry.

When my mother was diagnosed at a top hospital, their dieticians gave very clear instructions. They said absolutely no added sugar, limit white rice and potatoes, and avoid all packaged snacks and fruit juices. Best to ask your own doctor for a precise list tailored to your condition.
