Diabetes

Adopting a healthy diet and lifestyle is a key step in managing and importantly preventing diabetes. Dairy foods contain over ten essential nutrients and play an important role in a healthy, balanced diet.
Dairy foods have a low glycaemic index (GI) and have a key role to play in the management of diabetes. Foods with a low GI are digested more slowly and result in a more gradual rise in blood sugar levels, making them ideal foods for people with diabetes.
