If you’ve been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, chances are either research or a physician has told you to improve your diet. But if you try to find the perfect diet plan, chances are you will get a lot of conflicting information.

So, you can get a strong start with a trusted diabetes management program and a diet plan.

Lifestyle modification, including nutritional and diet management, is at the core of diabetes management. While diet modification alone is not sufficient, it is an excellent starting point. Below, we have a 7-day diet chart for diabetes, which is designed by expert dieticians and nutritionists.

Along with the diet plan mentioned below, please also keep the following aspects in mind: 

  1. Portion control is very important 
  2. Moderation over restriction
