High-fiber diet for diabetes. Safe and effective treatment

J W Anderson et al. Postgrad Med. 1990 Aug.

Abstract

Persons with diabetes are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Maintaining normal lipid levels is, therefore, a key goal in diabetes management. A high-carbohydrate, high-fiber diet provides effective, positive, and safe treatment for diabetes and lowers the associated risk for coronary artery disease.
