In this episode, we’re joined once again by Finley Turner, Senior Specialist Research Dietitian at the Leicester Diabetes Centre. This time, we’re diving into the practical realities of eating well on a budget.
Together, we explore what a balanced diet looks like for someone living with type 2 diabetes, which nutrient-rich, budget-friendly foods deserve a place on your shopping list, and how to get portion sizes right without feeling restricted.
