Introduction
People with diabetes may consume a small amount of pineapple beer occasionally, but should avoid drinking it in large quantities. Pineapple beer contains both sugar and alcohol; excessive consumption can lead to elevated blood glucose levels and adversely affect the patient’s health. Therefore, individuals with diabetes should minimize their intake of pineapple beer. In daily life, people with diabetes should adhere to dietary therapy and avoid foods high in sugar and fat. Regular physical activity is also essential for diabetes management.

Individuals with diabetes should consistently adhere to dietary therapy in daily life. They should avoid high-sugar and high-fat foods—such as carbonated beverages, milk tea, barbecued foods, and fried chicken—and maintain portion control at every meal. Staple foods should combine whole grains and refined grains. Binge eating or overeating must be avoided. High-quality protein sources—including lean meat, eggs, dairy products, and fish—should be consumed in appropriate amounts. Fresh vegetables and low-sugar fruits are essential components of the diet; recommended options include leafy green vegetables, apples, and grapefruit.

Regular physical activity is crucial for people with diabetes. Suitable forms of exercise include brisk walking, jogging, cycling, and swimming. Each exercise session should last at least 30 minutes.
