Diabetic Diet Plan

This should be your program every meal. Below is a sample of a Diabetic Diet Plan to get you started:

Breakfast

4 ozs. Juice
1 slice of bread toasted
2 eggs
8 oz. milk
1 tsp. butter or margarine

Lunch

½ cup sliced cucumber on lettuce
mushroom and spinach omelet
1 slice bread
1 tsp. butter
½ cup canned vegetables (rinsed and drained well)
coffee or tea

Dinner

1 cup homemade bouillon (to control salt)
1 pork chop grilled (fat trimmed)
½ cup cooked beets
½ cup cooked green beans
1 small salad with fat-free dressing
1 slice bread

You do have free foods available that will not impact your health:

• Bouillon or broth
• Carbonated or mineral water
• Club Soda
• Coffee or teas
• Diet soft drinks
• Sugar-free drink mixes
• Sugar-free tonic water
• Cranberry Juice
• Sugar-free Jell-O
• Sugar-free candy
• Low-sugar jams and jellies

It is not a matter of limiting sugar, fats and salt. It is a matter of moderating what you eat and creating the right balance leading to a longer, healthier life.
