What is the Diabetes Support diet plan?

There is no specific "diabetes diet", instead, those with diabetes can manage their condition by enjoying a healthy, well balanced diet that's high in fibre, low in sugar, low in fat and heart healthy. However, we understand that you sometimes may want a little more guidance when making your food choices and that's why we have created the Diabetes Support Plan which encompasses all the principals of eating well for diabetes. The daily meal plans are editable and because every meal and food item on your plan will have the protein, carb and fat content displayed you can easily see the impact of any changes you make, particularly useful for those who count their carbs. There are no restrictions in this plan, instead it gives you all the know-how to manage your blood glucose levels and stay in control.

Is the Diabetes Support diet plan for you?

If you want to follow a healthy eating pattern that will help you achieve and maintain good blood glucose levels choose our Diabetes Support Plan. This plan can fit easily into your lifestyle while providing you with the tools to manage or prevent conditions where the body cannot maintain normal blood glucose levels. Alternatively, you can view our full range of diet plans which may also be suitable for you. You can further discuss your options with your healthcare team or our nutrition team by emailing nutrition@tescodiets.com. Diabetic foods: We do not include any products that are specifically made for people with diabetes (diabetic foods) on our plans as we feel they offer no special benefit to those with diabetes.
