Patients with diabetes may drink milk in the evening. Milk is rich in high-quality protein, which is easily absorbed by the human body and helps enhance immune function. Additionally, drinking milk in the evening may promote sleep and reduce insomnia. Patients with diabetes should avoid foods high in sugar and excessively fatty foods in their daily diet.
