is idli/dosa good for diabetes - #25213
I am really worried about my dad's health lately. He’s been diagnosed with diabetes and we’re trying to figure out his diet. I remember him always loving idli and dosa, but now I'm not sure. I heard mixed things like maybe they’re not great since they are made from rice and lentils, but I also read they can be good if prepared right??? He used to eat them for breakfast every day, and now he feels really sad about changing his eating habits. He’s also been showing some symptoms like fatigue and occasional headaches, but his doctor didn’t say much about food, just monitoring his sugar levels. Could anyone share their thoughts or experiences on whether idli/dosa is good for diabetes? Are there any specific toppings or ways to prepare them that could make them healthier? I really want him to enjoy his meals without compromising his health. Thanks a lot!! I'm just so confused!
