Directions for Sweet Success

Boba Milk Tea
More water, less tea

Drinking 6.5–9 cups of water daily flushes out extra glucose and keeps dehydration at bay.

Healthy diet

Skip expensive "diabetic" food. Eat fruits, veggies, and starchy staples like rice or pasta.

Limit sugar, fat and salt

Unsaturated fats like avocado, olive oil, and fatty fish balance blood sugar and fight inflammation.

Move it, shake it

Just 2.5 hours of physical exercise a week can keep your sugar in check.

Monitor Glucose

Keep close tabs on your blood sugar anytime, anywhere with a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) device.
