One of the advantages of having diabetes is the chance to try all sorts of different, new, and exciting foods. Maybe you haven’t experienced that yet, but people all over the country keep sending me diabetes-friendly products to try.
Most of them are healthy and tasty. Anyway, none of them have poisoned me yet. One of the most surprisingly good foods that I’ve had the pleasure of eating arrived a couple of days ago.

The growing movement to eat locally grown food attracts most people because it’s good for the planet. But it’s good for our own bodies too.
Those of us who have diabetes are especially concerned with good nutrition. We have to be sure to get high quality without the large quantity of food that most of our fellow Americans eat. Earlier I wrote here that we know that organic food is more nutrient dense than the standard supermarket stuff.
Just because having diabetes means watching what we eat, doesn’t mean that we don’t care about food. Most of us in fact probably care too much.
The trick is to increase the quality so we can decrease the quantity. Getting the tastiest and freshest foods is the way to go.
