Kayne is absolutely right: diabetics should eat a diet high in fiber and protein and low in sugar (most important) and *saturated* fats. The latter is important because high blood sugar damages the walls of the blood vessels and, if the diet is high in fat, that makes them especially susceptible to vascular diseases.
