LADA, or Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults, is a slower-progressing form of diabetes that affects 2% to 14% of diabetes patients and shares characteristics of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Therefore, the optimal dietary approach for LADA is a unique combination of strategies from both, focused on preserving remaining insulin production.

According to the American Diabetes Association, diets focusing on whole foods like vegetables, fruits, and whole grains support healthy blood sugar control. Understanding which food activates beta cells can be a powerful tool for managing and preventing conditions like type 2 diabetes by supporting the pancreas's vital functions. (Markdown OK)
