Food choices can support diabetes management, but a meal service cannot promise to reverse or cure diabetes. Some people with type 2 diabetes achieve remission; it is not guaranteed and still requires ongoing clinical monitoring. Do not stop prescribed medication because you change your diet. ADA: the international consensus on remission.
A starting point, not a prescription
- Half the plate: non-starchy vegetables
- One quarter: lean protein
- One quarter: carbohydrate foods
Portions, carbohydrate amounts and meal timing should reflect your needs and medication. There is no single calorie limit or nutrient ratio suitable for everyone. ADA: the diabetes plate method.
Our Diabetic-Friendly plan is a meal-service option, not a clinical programme. Ask for current ingredients and portion information and discuss suitability with your clinician or registered dietitian. We do not guarantee glucose outcomes or a time to improvement.
