Can diabetics and the elderly eat sugar-free cereal?

Patient's question:

Some supplements are labeled as sugar-free. Can diabetics, especially the elderly, eat this type of sugar-free cereal?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, people with diabetes can eat this type of sugar-free cereal.
Suggestion: It is recommended that you don't eat too much of it, because sugar-free foods refer to foods that do not contain sucrose, but these foods are all made of starch. When people eat starch-based foods, they can be converted into glucose and absorbed by the body. Therefore, it is also necessary to control these types of foods. Wishing you good health!
