A typical diabetes diet menu consists of carb-controlled portions that are high in fiber and do not contribute to fluctuations in blood sugar. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes, you must control your sugar or face many of the complications of this disease, such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular or kidney problems.

If you are overweight, you have even more of a challenge. One site that is easy to control when planning your diabetes diet menu, is fragment control. This overlooked, simple strategy can really help. You will be less hungry and feel more satisfied if you decide smaller portions of a variety of foods, rather than just eating one or two kinds.

Eating more, smaller meals throughout the day is also very important. You’ll control your blood sugar better by healthy snacking or ‘grazing’ rather than eating three large meals. Your blood sugar will ’spike’ less and you’ll feel better and lose weight too.

When creating your diabetes diet menu, eat foods that don’t contribute to glycemic fluctuations, eat smaller portions more often through your day. You’ll get the benefit of a more stable blood sugar, and you’ll contemplate weight loss as a bonus benefit.
