1. Focus on Low-Carb Vegetables: Choose non-starchy vegetables like leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower, and bell peppers.

2. Include Lean Proteins: Opt for sources like chicken, turkey, fish, tofu, and eggs.

3. Healthy Fats: Incorporate avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil. These fats can help keep you full and stabilize blood sugar levels.

4. Limit Processed Foods: Avoid sugary snacks, refined grains, and processed foods, which can cause spikes in blood sugar.

5. Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Herbal teas are a healthy and tasty option. Herbal teas, with their natural goodness, are a great pick.



6. Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes, especially with foods that are higher in fat or protein, as they can still affect blood sugar.

7. Monitor Blood Sugar: Regularly check your blood sugar levels to see how different foods affect you.

Adjustments and Variety

Feel free to adjust the plan based on personal preferences, dietary restrictions, and blood sugar responses. Variety is important to ensure you get a range of nutrients and don’t get bored with your meals.

This plan provides a framework to help manage diabetes through a low-carb approach, but individual needs can vary. Adjustments may be necessary based on personal health goals and advice from your healthcare provider.
