Eating healthy to prevent diabetes is a balancing act, Uplinger says: «I encourage people to make half of
their plate nonstarchy vegetables (broccoli, green beans), one quarter starch, and one quarter protein.»
Divide a 9 - inch
plate into four sections and fill one section with protein, one with
nonstarchy vegetables, one with fruit or another
nonstarchy vegetable and one with grains or starchy
vegetables.
