By Global Health Media Project: https://globalhealthmedia.org/ To eat healthy – when you have diabetes – it’s important to balance the portions within 3 main food groups: starches (or carbohydrates), protein, and fat . If you are overweight, it’s also good to limit the amount you eat. This video describes the healthy eating plate, which is a visual guide for making healthy balanced meals, using common foods of Asia. This video is one of over 30 videos in our series on diabetes prevention and care. The videos are targeted for three audiences: health care workers – to help guide providers in developing countries in good diabetes care; people with diabetes – to improve their knowledge and home care; and the general public – to increase their understanding of diabetes, with the aim of greater awareness of the risks and symptoms, and ways to prevent type 2 diabetes.
