Debunking Myths about avoiding Carbohydrates in Diabetes - Dr Arindam Pande

Contrary to the popular myth, not all carbohydrates need to be avoided in diabetes. While it's important to regulate carbohydrate intake to manage blood sugar levels, not all carbs are created equal. Healthier carbohydrate sources such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes provide essential nutrients, fiber, and energy without causing rapid spikes in blood sugar. It's more about making smart carbohydrate choices and controlling portion sizes rather than completely eliminating all carbs. A balanced diet, combined with regular physical activity and medication as prescribed, can help individuals with diabetes effectively manage their condition while still enjoying a varied and nutritious diet.

In this video, Dr Arindam Pande discusses Diabetes and the complications related to it while addressing the misconception that all carbohydrates should be avoided in diabetes.
