Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Dear Sir/ Mam, In such cases to my patients, I advice first Exercise and diet control. Follow the guidelines for 2 months with blood sugar level monitoring for every week. If the sugar levels come under control then follow the same or start medication under the advice of local treating doctor.

* Avoid single high concentrated meals.
* Small frequent meals more times in a day.
* Food high in fibre content like vegetables, whole pulses, fruits, etc.
Ideal combination of diabetic diet should be:--
Carbohydrates: 55-60%.
Fat: 30%.
Proteins: 15-20% (0.8g /kg /body wt).
Do not eat at all:--
Sugar, jam, syrups, honey, sweets, chocolates, fruit juices, ice creams, cold drinks, glucose drinks, cakes and pastries, sweet biscuits, puddings and protein powder with sugar.
Eat in moderation:--
Bread, chapatis, oat porridge, cornflakes (No sugar), Cheese, butter, Noodles or spaghetti, macroni, Thick soups, Milk & milk products, Chicken, lean meat, fish.

Exercise daily 30-40 minute like brisk walking, cycling. swimming if possible is preferable

Hope this guides you.
Thank you.
