What are the dietary requirements for people with type 2 diabetes?

Patient's question:

My father dislikes greasy food and also doesn't like walking much. He has now been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. What dietary advice is there for people with type 2 diabetes?

Doctor's answer:

Most type 2 diabetes patients experience elevated blood sugar levels due to insulin resistance, and some may develop insulin deficiency in later stages. Dietary adjustments are necessary, such as reducing the intake of high-fat, high-sugar, and high-oil foods like fried foods, fatty meats, various biscuits, pastries, and candies, while increasing the consumption of green vegetables. Additionally, appropriate physical activity can help stabilize insulin resistance and also aid in lowering blood sugar levels.
