Recipes for BP and Diabetic patients

My mom usually has little high blood pressure. She takes medicine and caution in eating to avoid high BP. But recently, her sugar level has increased and stays at around 130-140. She is not taking any medication for it, but very cautious not to consume sweet food. So currently, no salt and no sugar, and you can imagine how the food would taste like.

So my request is to provide me with some good recipes that my mom can make and enjoy the food. Provide me web links, tips, etc. What cautions should be taken, exercises, etc. Thanks.

Stress doesn’t help the sugar level, so be careful with the salt etc but don’t remove it from her meals. In other words, remove stress and keep salt in desi cooking.

Hello K-2
to reduce salt and sugar from your Moms diet try to add other flavour enhancers to the food instead of salt , like lemon/lime juice, different types of fresh herbs, a few dashes of vinegar and use things like low salt stock powder and cubes.
