Eating bread as a diabetic

Published by

I want to know if I can still eat bread even though I have diabetes.

You can eat bread even though you have diabetes. You should however avoid glucose spikes which arise from highly refined carbohydrates. Brown bread is high in soluble fiber which forms a gel that slows digestion and releases glucose much more slowly. This is a better choice to consider.
