What are the best food to keep up with as a teenager living with diabetes
 
That’s not an easy question to answer.

It depends on the treatment being taken and also the advice from the medical team.

Usually the plan will be to match the insulin and the diet to control blood sugar levels.

Can you give us any more information about the person with diabetes, diet, the insulins they are on, and advice from their medical team?
 
Welcome to the forums @Paulmescal . Is the teenager T1 or T2 diabetic? While most children diagnosed with diabetes are T1, an increasing number of young people are now being diagnosed with T2 diabetes.....

Are you this teenagers caretaker? Your profile says you're 29 years old, so you're asking for someone else.
Would the teenager be willing to join the forum themselves so they can aks questions?

We have many members who were diagnosed as teenagers or younger, which may be of help. :)
