Latino adults are more likely to have diabetes than non-latino individuals. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) knows that learning how to create a well-balanced meal may help many Latino families understand how to eat healthy.

A bilingual, interactive tool called “Create your plate”, has been created by ADA that allows Latinos to create healthy meals by offering portion size recommendations as well as tips on popular common healthy Latin foods. Healthy foods are an important step in preventing diabetes and tools like these may help empower individuals to make nutritious eating choices.
