Hi,

For diabetes, blood glucose levels is to be maintained under control! In the long run, vegetarian diet is suitable for diabetes (vegetables, fruits, selected ones) boiled, steamed etc! instead of white flour, mixed flour is more suitable. People learning to do meditation seem to have much faster healing also.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
