Supporting Australians with Diabetes

At Lite n’ Easy we aim to support those living with diabetes to help them eat well, so they can better manage their condition and live a longer, healthier, happier life.

If you are one of the 1.9 million Australians living with diabetes, you will already know that eating well is key to staying well and avoiding complications in the future, such as heart disease, vision loss, and amputation. Managing weight and enjoying a healthy diet can help turn pre-diabetes around to prevent the development of type 2 diabetes.

What should I eat to manage diabetes?

There is no special diabetic diet. People living with diabetes can enjoy the same foods as everybody else. Diabetes Australia recommend you focus on overall diet quality, eat regular meals, and enjoy foods from each of the five food groups (vegetables and legumes, fruit, wholegrains, lean proteins, dairy and alternatives).
