My mom was dietbetic. And she had a really hard time. One thing that you need to know is the fruits and vegetables that turn into sugars. And make sure you get your carbs for the day. You don't want your sugars to go to low. Fruits raises your sugars but then your sugars will go low because fruits digest fast. So vegetables will do this to. Carbs and protein helps keep your sugars more stable. My mom loved oatmeal with fresh blueberries. The oatmeal will digest slower and keep your sugars stable for longer. And blueberries helps with producing insulin and helps the pacris stay healthy. WebMD is a good website to help find information. Myself, I'm a pre-dietbetic. And I had been trying to get rid of the sugar but it is hard for me. So I been trying to eat fruit instead of a candy bar.
