What food can diabetics eat?
Regular and consistent diet is most important, with no feasts and fasts. Split your diet into 3-4 meals. Avoid sugar and sugar containing foods, and fried foods.

how can i tell if i have gynecomastia is it something that can go away with diet and exercise or do i need surgery and what would the surgery cost be
