You don’t need to cook an elaborate meal to better control your blood sugar. You just need to understand the technique of balancing your nutrients at meal time. Try to include these at each meal:
- Veggies
- Lean Protein & Fats
- Wholesome Grains
The fiber from your veggies and grains will prevent your sugar from spiking, and the protein and fat will keep your sugars stabilized over a longer period of time.
