Following a diabetes meal plan can seem challenging when you're faced with hundreds of shelves worth of choices combined with all those confusing food labels. Although it would certainly make life easier if you could just follow a grocery list for your diabetes diet, it doesn't necessarily work that way.
Everyone's diabetes and individual nutritional needs are different. But the heart of every diabetes eating plan is pretty much the same as any healthful diet — a nutrient-rich blend of foods that are low in fat and calories and based on moderate serving sizes. So, with a little know-how and practice, you can turn food shopping into a regular to-do — not a complicated excursion.
