I am a 51 year old indian pure vegetarian male. I have been diabetic since a few years. Though I try my level best to maintain a proper diet, I have to adjust to eating whatever is available due to my constant touring. This hampers my blood sugar level. I would like to have a proper diet plan - pure veg only. Please help. I am also taking ppg 0.2 and diabetrol sr.

Few details are required to give correct advise, like weight, height, waist circumference, level of physical activity every day and the dosage of medications taken. Ppg 0.2 needs to be taken with each meal with first bite. As regards the food on tour one can stick to dal roti, salads, curd and a little rice (if needed). Breakfast could be upama, 2 idlis, 1 -2 plain dosas with nil oil, and half apple or 1 orange etc. Dinner should be similar to lunch. Avoid sweets, pastries, deep fried foods, drink dilute butter milk. A glass of skimmed milk can be had at bed time.
