Is it okay to eat candy if I have diabetes?

It is okay to eat anything as long as you don't eat too much and you know how much you're eating, so you can make adjustments to keep your blood glucose close to normal. More and more candy and sweets have labels with a nutritional analysis, including the amount of carbohydrate and fat, so it is easier to know how much you are eating. When you know that, you can compensate by eating less of something else, exercising, or taking more insulin (if this is an option).
