What are the staple foods for diabetic patients?

Patient's question:

Is it true that diabetic patients cannot eat sugary foods? But pork also contains sugar, right? So, what should be the staple food for diabetic patients?

Doctor's answer:

In our daily lives, the food we eat contains varying amounts of sugar. For people with diabetes, maintaining a balanced diet is most important, ensuring three meals are properly portioned and avoiding overeating. If possible, it's better to eat smaller, more frequent meals. On a regular basis, focus on whole grains, such as cornmeal and bean flour, and consume pork in moderation. At the same time, engage in effective exercise after meals. Try to avoid fruits with high sugar content.
