Prioritize balanced meals
A balanced diet with whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean protein and healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar and maintain energy throughout the day. This combination provides carbohydrates to create energy, and at the same time, supplements protein and fiber to limit sudden blood sugar spikes after eating.
Don't skip breakfast
Breakfast plays an important role in controlling blood sugar levels. Skipping breakfast can increase the risk of high blood sugar in subsequent meals. Some suitable options include oatmeal combined with peanut butter and strawberries, unsweetened Greek yogurt served with granola and blueberries, or whole wheat bread with eggs and avocado.
Maintain regular exercise
Physical activity is one of the important factors to help prevent and support controlling diabetes. For better results, aerobic exercises should be combined with strength training during the week. Even short intervals of exercise or a few minutes of walking after meals can contribute to improving blood sugar control.
