Diabetics must be careful about what they eat. This means that one of the first things a diabetic must do is to rate their plates and see if there are enough vegetables, starches or grains, and a source of lean protein on them. But that is not all, because drinking low-fat milk regularly is really good for people who suffer from diabetes, as is eating lots of fruits (such as oranges, pears, berries and cherries) and, also, plain Greek yogurts.
