Berries, fruit, and nuts are probably the diabetic's worst nightmare; two are concentrated sugar and the other is concentrated carbs. A diabetic watching his sugar needs minimal amounts of both.
It can only help to know the local flora, especially as the diabetic will likely be eating a lot of it.
Protein, as always, is paramount to survival, especially as they provide energy without providing much sugar. Fishing, trapping, and other hunting skills are thus good skills to develop.
If you are dealing with long-term survival remember that insulin will expire, usually after a month. As such there is not reason to ration it, as once it hits that limit it should expire soon afterwards.
By the same token, ask your doctor if there is a minimal dose beyond which your insulin has no effect. It may be necessary to share your insulin and that information may be needed.
