Diabetes Dietitian in Kolkata

Cut down on the sugar, not the sweetness.

Diagnosed with diabetes?

Diabetes is often called the silent killer because it can affect your eyes, heart, kidneys, and nerves over time. It can cause high blood sugar that can leave you tired and irritable, sudden hunger that messes up your routine, and stubborn weight that does not go anywhere, no matter what you try.

Managing diabetes doesn’t have to be stressful. What if we told you that with the right nutrition and a few smart lifestyle changes, you can keep your sugar levels steady and feel in control again?

Dt. Uma Bajoria, a diet and lifestyle consultant and a certified diabetes educator, shows you how to make smart, delicious swaps so you can enjoy your favourite treats. For example, you can make simple dietary changes by choosing a fresh fruit yoghurt over sugary ice creams. Small switches like these keep your taste buds happy and your blood sugar levels steady.

Stop stressing over every meal. Consult with a diabetes nutrition expert and feel the difference.

Purpose / Tip

Dos and Don’ts for Diabetes

Dos

  • Pair carbs with protein or healthy fat at every meal to slow glucose absorption.
  • Prioritise high-fibre vegetables (like greens, beans, and broccoli) to make up half your plate.
  • Choose whole grains and complex carbs like oats, brown rice, or millets (e.g., jowar, bajra).
  • Practice portion control for all starches and grains, even healthy ones, as they all affect diabetes.

Don’ts

  • Eat carbs (like plain rice, white bread, or fruit juice) alone, as this causes rapid sugar spikes.
  • Skip meals or eat erratically. Consistent timing is vital for balancing medication and insulin.
  • Consume refined or simple sugars hidden in packaged snacks, candies, sodas, or concentrated fruit juices.
  • Guess your serving sizes for rice, potatoes, or bread.
