How to add some excitement to my diabetic diet chart? Posted: 10-26-07 22:37pm
I am a 58 year-old man suffering from
diabetes for the last 2 decades. I am
being forced to live on a bland diet even
though I have been a gourmet since my
youth. Is there a way to add some
excitement to my diet chart?

Current medical wisdom does not impose any
ban on any particular foodstuff for
diabetics. On the contrary, it calls for a
diet perfectly balanced in terms of
calorie and nutritional constituents which
should be uniformly distributed throughout
the day. Nowadays we also allow diabetics
to have simple sugar to the extent of 30g
per day. But mind it that the sugar should
not be consumed at a time and should be
taken with complex carbohydrates like
chapatti, breads, rice and so on. You can
have sweet drinks and artificial
sweeteners. In addition physical exercise
like daily brisque walks can keep your
calorie count under control.
