DRINK THIS:
Coffee
Because it’s low in calories and carbs, black coffee is a safe choice for diabetics. If you prefer your cuppa joe with some milk, choose 1% or skim, and make sure that you count it in your meal plan. A quarter-cup of skim milk—about what you’d pour into a 16-ounce coffee—provides about 3 grams of carbohydrates. A single sugar packet contains 4 grams of carbs.
