Maintaining stable blood sugar is key to preventing health issues, and food plays a major role. As the article states, “Nutrition plays a significant role in managing it.” Here are ten blood sugar-friendly foods, simplified into five essential groups:
1. Fiber-Rich Veggies and Grains
Pumpkin, broccoli, and oats are all high in fiber. “Pumpkin contains polysaccharides that may help reduce blood sugar,” while broccoli offers sulforaphane that “can lower blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity.” Oats, with their soluble fiber, “help lower postmeal blood sugar levels.”
2. Healthy Proteins
Seafood, eggs, and fermented dairy like yogurt and kefir help stabilize blood sugar. The article notes, “Seafood helps regulate blood sugar by minimizing postmeal spikes,” and “Eggs enhance insulin sensitivity.”
