While there's no substitute for a balanced diabetic diet, adding certain foods may help those with diabetes keep sugar levels in check.
Foods to Manage your Sugar Level! We have jotted down some essential foods that help balance blood sugar. • Apples • Beans • Berries • Chocolate • Cinnamon • Oatmeal • Sweet Potatoes • Vinegar • Broccoli • Spinach
Apples An apple a day keep insulin levels balanced. They are loaded with quercetin, known for reducing the risk of diabetes and heart disease.
Beans Beans are ideal plant based food rich in fiber. The fiber in beans helps you manage your sugar levels appropriately providing steady and slow burning energy.
Berries They are an excellent source of quercetin, a flavonoid, which helps reduce blood sugar levels. Rich in fiber they are the most sugar friendly fruits and it doesn’t hurt that they taste good too!
Chocolate Incredibly enough chocolate can also help you balance your blood sugar levels! Cacao, raw unsweetened chocolate, improves your blood sugar levels. Loaded with vitamins, minerals, and powerful antioxidants, be on the lookout for raw cacao beans, nibs or powder.
Cinnamon Clinically proven to stabilize blood sugar and have a healing effect on the pancreas. Studies show that just a ½ teaspoon of cinnamon a day improves insulin sensitivity.
Oatmeal The breakfast favorite! The fiber in oatmeal helps curb appetite, decreases high cholesterol and balances your sugar levels.
Sweet Potatoes Deceivingly sweet yet sweet potatoes are a rich source of complex carbs, which help to slow the release of glucose in your blood stream that can cause mood and energy imbalances.
Vinegar Vinegar is usually used for salad dressing, but it also has a pronounced effect on blood sugar levels. It prevents some dietary starches (which raise your blood sugar level) from being digested.
Broccoli If you want to lose weight, then try eating broccoli a few times a week. Broccoli has a great amount of essential dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals, which fills up your tummy.
Spinach Add plenty of nonstarchy vegetables such as spinach to your diet, diabetes experts say. These foods are high in fiber and low in carbohydrates, which make them ideal for people with diabetes.
Diabetes is the imbalance in blood sugar and the impairment of insulin resistance. Insulin is similar to a knob of the fuel tank which automatically closes down when the entire tank fills. In our body the fuel tank is cells and insulin allows a certain level of sugar to pass on the cells. But owing to our irregular diet and hectic lifestyle, increased blood sugar readings are growing.
