Dietery modifications in diabetes

-
  Based on the latest evidence-based research, here are the top 10 foods that diabetic patients should eat and foods they should avoid: Foods to Eat: 1. Non-Starchy Vegetables: Broccoli, spinach, kale, and bell peppers. These are low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, helping to control blood sugar levels [(Salaki et al., 2023)]. 2. Whole Grains: Brown rice, quinoa, barley, and whole oats. Whole grains have a lower glycemic index and are rich in fiber, aiding in blood sugar management [(Dwipajati et al., 2022)] 3. Lean Proteins: Chicken breast, turkey, tofu, and fish.  Lean proteins help maintain muscle mass without adding unhealthy fats, supporting overall health [(Petroni et al., 2021)] 4.
