Every food is packed with certain kinds of nutrients and these nutrients impact differently on our body. Some nutrients are effective in stabilizing blood sugar levels, protect your heart, and also save your vision from the devastating effects of diabetes. Here are the foods that are superb for Diabetes,
Nuts
In a nutshell, nuts are one of the healthiest food that you can add to your diet plan. Nuts can improve blood sugar control in type 2 diabetes. They help in making artery walls more flexible and less prone to blood clots.
Chocolate
Chocolate, especially dark chocolate, improves insulin sensitivity which is a crucial improvement in preventing or treating type 2 diabetes. Dark chocolate also produces a significant drop in blood pressure, reduces LDL (bad) cholesterol, and improves blood vessel function. Just never overdo it. Dark chocolate is great, but it still packs a lot of fat and calories.
Beans
Beans are a great addition to soups, salads, and a variety of ethnic dishes. Beans help reduce the risk of diabetes and heart disease. The fiber slows the release of glucose into your bloodstream. This prevents the blood sugar spikes that worsen diabetes blood sugar control and make you feel hungry.
Blueberries
Blueberries have high fiber content that reduces the risk of diabetes and cognitive decline. One of the specific types of antioxidants found in blueberries are anthocyanins and recent research links eating foods rich in anthocyanins with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes.
Barley
It is one of the healthiest grains that you’re probably not eating. Barley can also help steady your blood sugar while filling you up. The grain even boasts a modest amount of calcium.
Salmon
Salmon is one of the best nondairy sources of vitamin D around. It’s a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, healthy fats that reduce the risk of heart disease, whittle your waistline, reduce inflammation, and improve insulin resistance.
Orange
Studies show that people with diabetes tend to have lower levels of vitamin C in their bodies, so orange is a great snack choice!
