Yes, diabetics can still eat Mexican food. Doctors typically recommend that a person should always keep track of their carbohydrates, protein, and calorie intake when eating certain food. This means that carbohydrates should not exceed 45 to 65 percent per day, protein should not exceed 15 to 20 percent per day, and fat should also not exceed 20 to 35 percent of the daily calorie intake.

If you have diabetes, you can surely eat some of the following Mexican food: Asada steaks which is grilled and is a great food choice for people with diabetes, salads such as fajita or guacamole help keep carbohydrate and calories under control, pescado, and fajitas which are served with bell peppers, onions, sour cream, cheese and lettuce.
