Diabetes & Prediabetes Diet in Malta
Practical meal planning to support blood sugar and long-term metabolic health.
Food choices, portion sizes and regular eating patterns can make a meaningful difference for many people living with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. At Karma Clinic, Daniel Petre helps you plan meals that fit Maltese family life while working alongside your doctor or diabetes care team.

- Choose realistic alternatives to sugary drinks and heavily processed snacks.
- Adapt familiar Maltese meals instead of abandoning the foods you enjoy.
- Support weight and cardiovascular health when appropriate.

Important medication safety information
If you use insulin or medicines that can cause low blood sugar, changing meal timing or carbohydrate intake can increase hypoglycaemia risk. Coordinate significant dietary changes with your diabetes care team. Do not adjust medication yourself.
