Food is more than numbers on a nutrition label or glucose meter.

It can represent family, culture, celebration, comfort, identity, and belonging. 💛 Living with prediabetes or diabetes doesn’t mean giving up the foods that matter to you. It means finding ways to support your health while still honoring the traditions and flavors that are part of your life. Healthy eating can make room for both. We see so grateful @vandanasheth came to share her wisdom and knowledge with our community! #DiabetesSisters #DiabetesNutrition #CulturalFoods #HealthyEating #DiabetesSupport
