Can diabetic patient drink millet gruel and corn flour gruel

Diabetes patients can drink rice porridge and corn flour porridge in moderation, but need to carefully choose and control the intake.

Millet and corn are staple foods, although they contain certain nutrients, but after cooking into porridge, their carbohydrates are easily absorbed, which may lead to rapid blood sugar rise. If diabetes patients want to drink rice porridge or corn flour porridge very much, they can drink a small amount, and pay attention to other foods, such as vegetables, protein foods, etc., which can slow down the absorption rate of carbohydrates and reduce the impact on blood sugar. In addition, when drinking, pay attention to monitoring blood sugar and understand your own blood sugar response to such foods in order to better adjust your diet.

Patients need to judge whether they are suitable for drinking and how much they can drink according to their actual situation and under the guidance of a doctor or nutritionist.
