Here’s a simple one-day Kerala diet plan for people living with diabetes, based on local foods and proven science! 🌴
Kerala’s traditional foods—like red rice, vegetables, fish, and coconut—are packed with fiber, nutrients, and healthy fats. Studies show that using Kerala red rice (Matta rice) and local veggies can help control blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and even support weight loss for people with diabetes. The key is portion control, way of cooking and balanced meals.
– A handful of nuts or fruit ( apple or guava)
– Keep rice portions small—don’t skip it, but don’t overload!
– Fill half your plate with vegetables.
– Include fish or pulses for protein.
– Use coconut oil in moderation.
– Avoid fried foods and sweets.

A Kerala-style diet can be both tasty and diabetes-friendly if you watch portions and balance your plate. Would you like a weekly Kerala meal plan too? 😃
