Diabetic-friendly meal plan — low-GI, high-fiber, macro-balanced

Standard 'healthy eating' apps recommend 50% carbs and call it a day. For type-2 diabetes, the SHAPE of the carb intake matters as much as the total: 60g carbs at breakfast spikes glucose if eaten alone, but the same 60g with 25g protein and 8g fiber blunts the spike by 40-60%. Volya's coach knows this and builds meals where protein + fiber arrive WITH the carbs, not after — so your post-meal glucose stays in the safe band without making you white-knuckle through low-carb cravings.

Recipe catalog already tags low-GI choices: oats over white rice, lentils over pasta, berries over banana. The AI workout side helps too — strength training 3×/week improves insulin sensitivity by 16-30% within 8 weeks per peer-reviewed RCTs, so the planner prioritizes compound lifts. You won't see contraindicated moves (cardiac_condition + diabetes_type_2 overlap is handled). Use the photo-plate scanner during restaurant meals to log the carb load in real time — the coach flags overages within 30 seconds.
