Which drink does the Diabetes Plate Method call the best choice with a meal?

Water, with zero calories and zero carbs.

  1. Water ✔
  2. 100% orange juice
  3. Sweet tea

Why: Water has no calories or carbs and no effect on blood glucose. Unsweetened tea or coffee, sparkling water and diet drinks are other zero or low calorie options.

Huh, didn't know that: Infused water with fruit or herbs counts too, as long as no sugar is added.

The dad joke
What's the best drink with any meal? Water. It's never watered down.
