Research Notes on Type 2 Diabetes Diet


For a person with type 2 diabetes, what they eat is an important factor in controlling their blood sugar.1 Knowing which foods are healthy and which ones to avoid can be tricky without the proper education. Taking small steps such as limiting the amount of your fat intake, can be beneficial.2

Fast Facts:

  • Diabetics should limit sodium intake due to the increase risk of developing high blood pressure.2
  • There are a variety of resources such as cookbooks, guides, and classes available.
  • Visiting with a registered dietitian could be useful in learning more about what foods are good for you.1
