While
there's no substitute for a balanced healthy diet, adding certain foods may
help those with diabetes keep sugar levels under control.
It's still
important for people with diabetes to eat a balanced healthy diet and exercise
to help manage the condition.
Even though
you have diabetes, your meal plan should include small portions of carbohydrate
foods, such as fruit, cereal, yogurt, beans and starchy vegetables. Corn is a
source of energy, fiber, vitamins and minerals and is low in fat and sodium.
Keep track of the carbohydrate grams you eat and set a limit for the day,
advises the American Diabetes Association. A ½-cup serving of cooked corn or
half of a large corn cob contains 15 grams of carbohydrate. Most people with
diabetes should eat between 45 and 60 grams of carbohydrate per meal.
