I’m 21 years old and have Diabetes. I love eating non-vegetarian food. Could you please guide me on what type of meats and sea foods including the portion size are healthy for me so that I don’t have to compromise non-veg from my diet.”You don’t have to compromise by omitting non-vegetarian food from your diet. Seafood and meat are rich in omega 3 fatty acids, proteins, vitamins and minerals. The key point to remember is stick to the portion size i.e. 30-50 gm/1-2 medium pieces.You can opt from the following varieties of seafood and meat:Seafood - salmon, tuna mackerel, surmai(mackerel), rawas, rohu, sardines, shark, shellfish (shrimp, crab(small), clams), pomfret (black, white) prawns and Bombay duckMeat – mutton (goat meat), chicken breast. It is best to avoid red meat.
