A Simple, Practical & Scientifically Designed Diet for Disease Control
At My Care Clinic, we understand that most people struggle with complicated diet charts. That’s why we created the My Care Diet Plan — a simple, easy-to-follow, and sustainable eating pattern that fits naturally into your daily Indian lifestyle.
This plan focuses on portion control, right food combinations, and correct meal timing to help you:
- Control blood sugar levels
- Reduce weight (if needed)
- Improve energy and digestion
- Prevent long-term complications
Breakfast – Start Light, Stay Energetic
Your breakfast should be light, natural, and rich in fiber.
What to Take:
- 250 – 500 grams of seasonal fruits (apple, papaya, guava, orange, etc.) OR
- Protein-rich options like:
- Moong Dal Cheela with Green Vegetables
- Besan Cheela with Green Vegetables
Why This Works:
Fruits provide natural sugar with fiber, which releases energy slowly.
Dal-based options add protein, keeping you full and preventing sudden sugar spikes.
Mid-Morning – Control Hunger Smartly
Many people feel hungry between breakfast and lunch. Instead of unhealthy snacks:
What to Take:
- 50 grams sprouts (moong, chana, etc.)
Why This Works:
Sprouts are rich in protein, fiber, and micronutrients, helping maintain stable blood sugar and reducing cravings.
Lunch – The Balanced Plate Formula
Lunch should be balanced, filling, and controlled in quantity.
Step 1: Start with Salad (Very Important)
- 250 grams raw salad
- 2 Cucumbers
- 2 Tomatoes
Eating salad first reduces hunger and prevents overeating.
Step 2: Follow the “My Care Plate Rule”
- 1 Roti or Small Portion of Brown Rice
- 1 Bowl Cooked Vegetable
- 1 Bowl Dal
Allowed Grains:
- Wheat (Roti)
- Brown Rice
Why This Works:
This combination ensures:
- Controlled carbohydrates
- Adequate protein
- High fiber intake
It helps maintain steady blood sugar levels after meals.
Evening Snack – Healthy Energy Boost
Evening is the most common time for unhealthy eating. Replace junk food with:
What to Take:
- 40 grams nuts & seeds (soaked 6–7 hours)
Recommended Options:
- Almonds
- Walnuts
- Pumpkin Seeds
Why This Works:
These provide healthy fats and protein, which:
- Reduce hunger
- Improve heart health
- Prevent sudden sugar spikes
Dinner – Eat Early, Eat Light
Dinner timing is crucial for diabetes control.
Important Rule:
- Finish dinner before 8:00 PM (Ideal: 7:00 – 8:00 PM)
Step 1: Start with Salad
- 250 grams salad
- 1 Green Capsicum
- 2 Tomatoes
Step 2: Follow the Same Plate Rule
- 1 Roti or Brown Rice
- 1 Bowl Vegetable
- 1 Bowl Dal
Why This Works:
Early and light dinner helps:
- Improve digestion
- Prevent night-time sugar spikes
- Support better sleep and metabolism
Foods to Avoid – The Most Important Step
Even the best diet will fail if these foods are not controlled.
1. Processed & Packaged Foods
- Biscuits, bread, burgers, pizza, packaged snacks
These contain refined flour, sugar, and unhealthy fats
2. High Glycemic (High Sugar-Raising) Foods
- Refined carbohydrates like white sugar, sugar syrups
- Excess root vegetables (like potatoes)
These cause rapid spikes in blood sugar
3. Fried Foods
- Paratha, samosa, kachori, bread pakoda, momos etc.
These increase weight, cholesterol, and insulin resistance
