It is adviced to have around 6-8 portioonds of carbohydrates ( 1 portion = 15gms. of carb).
You can start your day with 4-5 Almonds ( it is a rich source of protien). Have a 1-2 egg whites for Breakfast they are the best source of protien and easily available. If u are veg. then u can include kala channa in your breakfast.
Have a peice of chicken, dal or beans for your lunch they will provide u with protiens.
you can have D-Protein or Glucerna _SR for evening . Again good source of Protien or Roasted Channa ( 25-40 gms).
Dinner can again have some pulse or beans or Fish.
This will provide you with enough protein.
Stick to 2 chappatis ( 25gms ) each in ur meals or 2 chappatis and 1/3 cup of destarched rice.
Please don't go on high protein diet if your kidney function is not good.
Best Indian food for diabetics patients is food which contains low carb(low sugar), high protein, high fibre and low glycemic index.
Foods prepared with millets are gluten-free, loaded with protein and fiber, and are rich in vitamins, calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc.Millets are prescribed frequently by diabetologists quite simply because they are particularly known to bolster diabetes management measures. The high fiber content of millet is responsible for slowing down the release of sugar into the bloodstream. In fact, it would be more appropriate to claim that it slows down digestion – which results in the distribution of sugar at a more even pace.
Reducing the intake of simple carbohydrates like white rice, maida, potato, yam and using complex carbohydrate like Brown rice, millets, buckwheat, lentils etc will reduce blood sugar since complex carbohydrates have low glycemic index.
Using lentils instead of rice in dosa, idli etc will help in curbing the intake of simple carbs.
Here are some of the recipes for diabetic diet
Moong dal(Mung bean) kichdi /Pongal with broken wheat. Switch to broken wheat from rice. It tastes good and healthy too.
Ragi Dosa - Mix ragi flour with curd or water for consistency of dosa batter and add salt for taste and keep it for 30 min. And now prepare dosa with this batter for healthy breakfast.(Pinch of soda can be added for crispy dosa).
Multigrain Dosa - You can use a different type of dals with rice (unpolished rice or red rice ) and make healthy dosa. Likewise, idli also can be made.
Gluten-free flour can be used for making chapati.
