Be careful with drinks that are advertised as sugar-free. While these drinks are devoid of sugar, they are artificially sweetened,
Unfortunately, artificial sweeteners are a thousand times sweeter than sugar and they may boost your craving for sweets. Sweet cravings are the last thing you need if you have type 2 diabetes.
What you should never avoid is a high-fiber diet. Getting on a high-fiber diet can help your body function properly and reduce your blood sugar. Your doctor and dietitian can help you come up with a healthy, fiber-rich diet.
