New European Recommendations for Diabetes Management Emphasize Plant-Based Diets

New recommendations for the dietary management of diabetes from the European Association for the Study of Diabetes put plant-based foods front and center. These new recommendations, which are based on several large meta-analyses and systematic reviews, emphasize minimally processed plant foods, consuming ample fiber, and avoiding meat. Low-carbohydrate diets like the ketogenic diet were discouraged for lack of efficacy and safety concerns.
