If you’ve been diagnosed with pre-diabetes, your fate isn’t sealed! You can prevent this common condition from becoming full-blown diabetes.

Stick to vegetables, best way to go on a diet. Take veggie samosas over meat, stay away from carbohydrates such as naan and saffron rice.

Butter chicken, and curry you should stay away from; both are very fat.

I am a vegetarian who was recently diagnosed as a type-two diabetic. All of the menus that have been reccommended to me contain either chiken,turkey, or fish.
What can I eat that is consistent both with my vegetarian philosophy and my medical condition?

Tofu, beans, nuts, whole grains.

You don’t need to replace large amounts of carbs with protein (that is an outdated belief) but you do have to practise portion control, moderation (in fat, carb and protein), and eat frequent light meals rather than three heavy ones.
I assume you already know to limit junk food and sugary foods.

There is a natural, zero-calorie sweetener called Stevia that can be used to sweeten any kind of liquid food. Doesn’t work too well for dry desserts like cakes.
