Dietary modifications:

The basic principle of dietary modifications for diabetics is to stay within the limits of the daily caloric requirements of the patient and not to exceed it.

The total daily caloric requirement varies for instance an obese patient needs a Low Caloric Diet whereas an underweight patient’s daily caloric requisite needs to be higher.

The dietary modification for diabetics must be adjusted so that only the daily requirement of calories should be provided to the individuals.  The requirement of dietary fiber is 25-30g per day.

The cholesterol intake should not exceed 150mg per day. The intake of omega 3 fatty acids (Fish oil) should not be more than 4g/day.
