Paris has one of the more diabetes-friendly traditional eating structures in Europe — small portions, slow meals, cheese-over-dessert, more fat and protein than the US equivalent. The metabolic traps are distinctly Parisian: the 30cm baguette daily, the pain-au-chocolat breakfast, and the 3pm croissant. Our Paris plans honor the meal structure (entrée-plat-fromage), swap pastries for omelettes, and keep the bistrot dinner intact.
