Abstract
Importance of diet in diabetes can be traced back to the days of the ancient ayurvedic physican Sushruta. He attributed the consumption of whole-some foods, besides hereditary factors for the development of diabetes. The ideal diet for diabetes remains to be determined even after decades of experience in the management of diabetes. The dietary recommendations seem to vary from time to time along with the social changes.
