A balanced plate focuses on whole food recipe books to help balance blood glucose levels and create more health and energy in the lives of people struggling with diabetes or pre-diabetes. The fundamentals of blood sugar balancing foods revolve around eating foods that have a combination of healthy proteins, complex carbohydrates especially those with good amounts of insoluble fiber and small amounts of good fat. This combination helps reduce the amount of insulin required for each meal while helping you to feel satiated as well. This combination also slows how fast blood sugar enters the bloodstream after each meal.
