One of the most important festivals celebrated in the country is here. Diwali is all about bright lights, new clothes, sweets and much more. Like any festival in India, Diwali is incomplete without traditional and exotic sweets. People distribute, prepare and enjoy a variety of sweets such as barfi, laddoos or dry fruit-based sweets.
However, this time can be difficult for sugar conscious and diabetic people. There is a way to enjoy your favorite sweets even when you celebrate the festival of lights. You don’t have to give up sweets altogether, but just make small changes. You can make your desserts diabetic friendly and opt for a healthier version of them. Replace sugar with a natural sweetener and limit your portions.
