Common questions

Is Indian food good for diabetes?

The ADA Standards of Care (2024, Ch. 5) says no single meal plan fits everyone with diabetes. What matters is tracking net carbs per meal. Indian cooking can work well when you know the carb count per serving. MedMenu shows that for every recipe.

How many net carbs per meal for diabetes?

45g is a common practical target. Net carbs equal total carbs minus fiber, since fiber doesn't raise blood sugar. Your doctor can help you find a number that fits your medication and activity level. Every MedMenu recipe shows net carbs per serving with a visual bar against the 45g limit.

Which Indian spices may help with blood sugar?

Turmeric contains curcumin, which activates the AMPK pathway. Fenugreek seeds have galactomannan fiber that slows glucose absorption. Cinnamon's effects on insulin sensitivity are studied but evidence is mixed. MedMenu shows exact per-serving nutrition so you can decide based on numbers.

Can diabetics eat roti?

A standard wheat roti has roughly 15g net carbs. Pair it with a low-carb curry and the meal can stay well under the 45g target. MedMenu shows exact net carbs for every recipe including roti-based dishes.
