Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

there are two aspects to this answer.
1. you could probably try it. it doesnt need too much honey, just a tablespoon. may be you can reduce your sugar intake somewhere else.
2. the sugar control, if satisfactory may help you make allowance for this. since you have not stated the ongoing sugar status, i cannot answer u there. But also consider that in the long run , a lower weight will help control diabetes better

suggest meeting your doctor so as to discuss the possibility of the intake with relation to your sugar status
