About This Diet
Diabetic Diet Basics
A diabetic-friendly diet focuses on controlling blood glucose levels through careful management of carbohydrate intake, food quality, and glycaemic impact. It is not a single prescriptive diet but a set of evidence-based principles to help manage Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes effectively.
Key Principles
- Choose low glycaemic index (GI) foods over high-GI alternatives
- Limit refined carbohydrates and added sugars
- Consistent portion sizes and meal timing are important
- Fibre slows glucose absorption — prioritise high-fibre foods
