Beta, for diabetes, you can eat almost all green and non-starchy vegetables. My doctor always said to fill half my plate with them. Spinach, methi, gobhi, broccoli, bhindi, gajar... all good. Just remember to control portions of starchy ones like potatoes. It’s about balance, don't worry too much.

For diabetics, non-starchy vegetables are excellent. Think of green leafy ones like spinach and kale, and also broccoli, cauliflower, and capsicum. Just like managing thyroid needs regular tests, managing diabetes needs consistent healthy eating. Always discuss your diet with your doctor or a dietician.

From my experience with family members who are diabetic, they focus heavily on green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale. Also, things like broccoli, cauliflower, bell peppers, and cucumber are always on their plate. It's about low-carb, high-fiber options.

Arre beti, sugar ke liye sab hari sabzi bahut achhi hoti hai. Palak, methi, gobhi, karela, bhindi... sab kha sakte ho. Pet bhi bharega aur sehat bhi achhi rahegi. Bas aloo thoda kam khana. Ghar ka khana best hai na.
