Can diabetics drink polenta?

Diabetic patients should not drink corn porridge because it has a relatively high starch content on the one hand and is absorbed relatively quickly in the gastrointestinal tract on the other, which can easily lead to a significant increase in blood sugar. In addition to corn porridge, porridge such as eight-pot porridge, rice porridge and millet porridge are not recommended for diabetic patients to avoid the effect on blood sugar. Unless diabetic patients need to eat liquid food due to their condition, porridge is generally not recommended. It is recommended to replace vegetable soup with vegetable soup cooked in water without any flour or starch, and it is recommended not to eat wontons, noodles, dumplings and other foods fished out of the water.
