I’m making a meal plan for my mom who has diabetes. What foods should I include?
My mom has diabetes and she hasn’t really been watching her diet like she should. She’s making really, really small baby steps and is finding it hard to stay away from sodas and processed meats. Please give me some easy meals to prepare for her. And also give me an idea of what foods she should be eating. I also notice that she often resorts to eating what’s convenient and quick. If you have quick meal ideas for diabetics that would be great too. Thanks.
For diabetics (and most people in general) they should focus on high protein and lots of fruits/veggies. Eat real food…natural fed meat, fruits/veggies. Get a george foreman and it is so easy to prepare meals. Brown rice is good too but takes a long time (just make a big batch and save in the fridge). Another easy ‘meal’ is whey protein shakes. All you need is a blender, some ice, skim milk or juice, peanut butter/banana or fruit, and of course whey protein).
Go to mercola.com and do a search on diabetes. Dr. Mercola is a little out there but a lot of his suggestions have merit.
