• Delicious, healthy and filling meals are key to
  diabetic eating. Maintaining the right balance of
  carbs and fats and proteins can lead to a longer
  life. Diabetics should have about half a plate of
  vegetables, 1/4 of a plate of lean meat and 1/4 a
  plate of carbs. A small side of a dairy product
  can finish off a balanced meal.
