Healthy Eating
Eating is one of the greatest pleasures of life! Sharing meals in celebration with family and friends is an important part of our diverse Hispanic culture. And people living with diabetes can still eat their favorite foods. The difference is people with diabetes have to take extra care to make sure that their food is balanced with insulin and oral medications, and exercise to help manage their blood glucose levels.
Balance is the key to a healthy eating plan.
Choosing healthy foods, being active, and preparing healthy meals are very positive and important steps to be at a healthy weight and manage your diabetes. Perhaps you are thinking that this is not easy to do every day? But, it may be easier than you think. Even making just a few small changes to eat healthier and be more active can make a BIG impact on your weight and health.
