According to the latest National Health Survey^, 11.3% of Singapore residents aged 18-69 have diabetes*. This places Singapore among countries with a high incidence of diabetes. Diabetes is a life-long disease but it can be controlled with a healthy diet, regular exercise and medication. Having diabetes does not mean you have to give up your favourite foods or invitations to dine out with friends and family. In fact, eating can continue to be an enjoyable part of life with a little moderation and care. A diabetic diet is not all about avoiding sugar. Every individual with diabetes needs to eat a well balanced diet. However, blood sugar is affected most by carbohydrates – both sugars and starches. To effectively manage blood sugar level, you need to focus on Carbohydrate Control as the Type, Total Amount and Timing of carbohydrates in your diet will impact your blood sugar. |
