Itβs DIABETES AWARENESS MONTH.
βΌοΈDiabetes & Your Diet
Itβs not just sugar that spikes your blood sugar!
π₯ Diabetes Doesnβt Start With Sugar Aloneβ¦
Most people think diabetes is only about eating too much sugar, but hereβs the truth: your overall diet, lifestyle, and even stress play a big role in how your body manages blood sugar.
The Big Picture:
When your body canβt use insulin properly (or doesnβt make enough), sugar builds up in your blood. Over time, this damages your heart, kidneys, nerves, eyes, and can even lead to amputations.
π¨ Early Warning Signs:
βͺοΈConstant thirst
βͺοΈFrequent urination
βͺοΈUnexplained weight loss
βͺοΈSlow-healing wounds
βͺοΈBlurred vision
Diet Tips for Prevention & Control:
β
Choose whole carbs like brown rice, oats, and sweet potatoes over white bread and refined foods.
β
Include lean proteins (fish, eggs, beans, chicken) to keep you full and steady blood sugar.
β
Eat plenty of fiber-rich vegetables, they slow sugar absorption.
β
Reduce sugary drinks, swap soda for water or unsweetened tea.
β
Eat in balanced portions, even healthy foods can spike sugar if eaten in excess.
πGood news! FibreLife in Lifestyles has a scientific formulation that maximizes the natural goodness of fibre to:

π Did you know?

Final Word: Donβt just cut sugar. Balance your whole plate. Your future self will thank you.
