Diabetic patients should pay attention to their daily diet and avoid eating foods with high sugar content. Generally speaking, eating more vegetables, coarse grains and other foods with slow digestion is conducive to the stability of blood sugar in diabetics. Below, we will introduce several recipes suitable for diabetic patients.

1. Bitter gourd: clearing away heat and toxic materials, removing annoyance and quenching thirst. Clinical and animal experiments have proved that bitter gourd has obvious hypoglycemic effect. Diabetic patients can lower their blood sugar if they eat it regularly. Fresh bitter gourd can be used as a dish or braised in brown sauce, each time 100g. Diabetic patients with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should not take it.
