Losing weight and eating healthily are two of the concrete goals of diabetes management for most patients. A ‘food exchange’ is a type of eating plan that uses a variety of serving sizes as the basic building blocks of the diet.
The servings are equal in terms of calories, so people with diabetes can choose which food to eat and which to exchange. The food exchange is designed to provide variety, eat healthily and keep diets interesting.
The diabetic exchange is also known as the food exchange or diabetes exchange.
