“What do I eat?” is one of the most common questions asked by people living with diabetes. Eating healthy is a powerful tool in managing all types of diabetes but knowing what to eat and when can be challenging. Today we are talking about Nutrition Matters including essentials of healthy eating, eating for better blood glucose control and busting food myths along the way.
In today’s episode we are joined by two wonderful guests who know a thing or two about eating well with diabetes.
