Patient's question:
My wife is now a diabetic patient. She is currently undergoing treatment, and her wife said she really wants to eat lamb. But I'm also worried about her health. Can diabetic patients eat lamb during the treatment process? Thank you!Doctor's answer:
Diabetic patients generally base their diet on diabetic meals, with most avoiding foods high in starch or sugar. As for meat, it's okay to have some in moderation. Additionally, it's important to monitor blood sugar levels daily to check for any abnormalities. If diet alone isn't sufficient to control blood sugar, oral hypoglycemic medications may be necessary for treatment. Most patients recover quite well with proper management, so there's no need to worry.
