It is always better to rely on complex form of carbs rather than simple carbs in case of diabetes.

Hello. If you have diabetes, it is better to regulate consumption of any type of sweeteners, even honey. However, you can safely take one or two teaspoons (5-10 ml) of honey per day if you are taking medication to manage your diabetes and your blood sugar levels are in control.
Flaxseeds can be eaten as such, like a teaspoonful and just chew. Or, they can be crushed or powdered coarsely and added to the atta when making roti. They can also be added as topping on your salads.
