Overview

Managing blood sugar and cholesterol at the same time means watching both carbs and saturated fat. This printable combines the two: non-starchy vegetables, lean and plant protein and healthy fats to choose often, fiber-rich carbs to portion, and sugary and fatty foods to limit, based on the ADA Diabetes Plate Method and NHLBI heart-healthy eating.

The plate page shows how to build a balanced meal. Plan with the grocery list and a week of meal ideas, and keep your readings together in the blood sugar and cholesterol log.
