Get Smart With Your Drinks

• People often wonder which beverages are suitable
  for diabetics. It is no secret that there are
  numerous beverage options available today, but
  only a few people are aware of the options that
  are appropriate for diabetic individuals.
  Throughout this slide, we will explore some of
  the best diabetic-friendly beverages available.
  We wish to provide clarity regarding which drinks
  may be consumed without affecting blood sugar
  levels adversely.

Lime Juice with Chia Seeds

• The combination of lime juice and chia seeds is
  suitable for diabetics. It is low in natural
  sugars, preventing rapid spikes in blood sugar
  levels. A high fiber content in chia seeds
  facilitates a better control of blood sugar
  levels due to its ability to slow sugar
  absorption. Diabetes patients will find this
  beverage to be a refreshing and nutritious
  choice.

4
Buttermilk

• It is very refreshing, has a low glycemic index,
  and is low in fat, so it can be consumed whenever
  a diabetic desires in a safe manner.

5
Herbal Tea

• Teas such as green tea, chamomile tea, and
  hibiscus tea are packed with antioxidants and
  provide a refreshing experience. An unsweetened
  herbal tea contains no carbohydrates, calories,
  or sugar, making it a great choice for diabetics.
  Furthermore, herbal tea is a rich source of
  antioxidants that are beneficial for the immune
  system.

6
Vegetable Juices

• Avoid fruit juices with high sugar content and
  consider drinking vegetable juices in moderation.
  By using a blender, it is possible to make fresh
  juice at home rather than consuming packaged
  juices from outside sources. It is possible to
  blend vegetables such as broccoli and cucumber,
  as they have a minimal impact on blood sugar
  levels. It is also possible to combine cucumbers
  with mint or incorporate cucumbers into yogurt.

Cucumber and Lemon Wedges

• You can enhance plain water by adding cucumber
  slices, lemon wedges, or berries. Drink this
  infused water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

8
Balancing Act Sip Worthy

• Sugary drinks can significantly affect blood
  sugar levels since liquid carbohydrates digest
  more rapidly than solid carbohydrates. Sugary
  drinks, such as soda, soft drinks, energy drinks,
  sweet tea, and fruit juice, should be avoided by
  individuals with type 2 diabetes.
