What should I eat and drink to take care of my diabetes?

Written By DIY-DM

Planning out what you will eat and drink for each meal can help you take care of your diabetes.
You can make healthy meals using the Diabetes Plate Method: 

With your meal, choose a low-sugar drink:

  • Water

  • Unsweetened tea or coffee 

  • Sparkling water/club soda

  • Flavored water without added sugar

You can ask your doctor or a diabetes care and education specialist (DCES) for more tips on what to eat. You can also see a dietician who can help you make a healthy eating plan.
