Breakfast is not just the most unique meal, but according to experts, it should also be most nutritious as it sets the tone of the entire day. And so, if you have any underlying condition, like diabetes, you should know the right time to eat. Is it right after you wake up or immediately after your tea or coffee?

However, the real answer to this question is based on your individual needs. Doctors say to manage your blood sugar levels, there are always a variety of factors at play, from your pre-meal blood sugar to hormones, medication, and your entire day's schedule. And so, what works for you may not work for the others with the same condition.

Experts believe breakfast plays an important role in your health—especially your metabolism, energy levels, and overall well-being. It also protects you from many other chronic diseases, as diabetes can lower your immunity levels.

According to some studies, eating breakfast regularly is also linked to a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes, as it helps manage blood sugar by disrupting a spike in glucose levels throughout the day, allows the intake of carbohydrates safely, and can help you feel fuller until its time for lunch.

While your breakfast should not just mean fruits, eggs, or juices—these components are also equally important parts of your diet. Make sure to add whole plant foods that are low in saturated fat yet loaded with fibre, which keeps you full, contributes to gut health, and also, most importantly, regulates blood sugar.

So, whenever you plan your breakfast, make sure to fill more than half of your plate with vegetables, along with a quarter of protein and some carbs, as a combination of these can regulate your blood sugar levels.

You can eat a bowl of high-fibre oats along with a boiled egg and some roasted veggies on the side. Or an egg wrap with vegetable salad is enough to satiate you while helping you control blood sugar as well.

And so, the best time you can eat your breakfast with diabetes depends on you. When it comes to battling high glucose levels, make sure to put yourself first because, according to nutritionists, there is no right or wrong way to breakfast. What matters is that you find the pattern that works for you. There is no recommended specific timing, as that can be left to an individual's discretion. Eat your breakfast when you feel hungry and how your blood glucose level is faring. Do not force yourself to eat if you are not hungry.

And so, to do that, experts recommend testing your blood sugar levels often, as it helps you know if your breakfast plan is working well. If you notice that your blood sugar is above goal, you may need to make changes to your meals, exercise workout regimen, or even medicines. You can simply take a short walk after a meal to manage your blood glucose levels if they become high.
