My husband Randy is diabetic and from personal experience it is hard. He really has to watch his sugars and what he eats in general. One needs to read the labels very carefully and see how many carbs and how many sugars are in each food item. Randy is currently on insulin, but he has stopped taking it because his sugars were dropping fast. One site that has been helpful is the American Diabetes Association. One needs to have 45-60 carbs per meal. It is healthier to eat Rye bread and cut back on rice.

i m also on insulin and my doctor advised me to cut back on rice and potato and include salad and fiber rich fruits and walk and do some exercises for atleast 1 hr and try to include oats and ragi in my diet and its very difficult to monitor the sugar levels and monitoring carb and sugar intakes and i cant take too much spicy food too as it results in ketone formation in the body and i m advised to drink atleast 5 lts water daily
