Lowering blood sugar with peanuts is simple but effective, as long as you eat it properly.

Peanuts (also known as peanuts) are a nutritious food source, containing lots of protein, unsaturated fat, fiber and essential vitamins and minerals.

Stabilize blood sugar after meals

In recent years, scientific studies have shown that peanuts can aid in blood sugar control, especially for people with type 2 diabetes.

According to a study published in the American Diabetes Association's journal Diabetes Care, peanut consumption can help lower blood sugar levels after meals, thanks to the combination of healthy fats and fiber in peanuts. Peanuts have the ability to slow the rate at which glucose is absorbed into the bloodstream, thereby helping to maintain more stable blood sugar levels after meals. This is important for people with diabetes, as high blood sugar levels after meals can increase the risk of complications.

Peanuts may help improve insulin sensitivity, an important factor in blood sugar control. Peanuts contain high amounts of oleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid that has been shown to improve the body's response to insulin and reduce insulin resistance, a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes.

In addition, peanuts also contain high amounts of vitamin E and magnesium, nutrients that can help stabilize blood sugar levels. Vitamin E protects pancreatic beta cells, helping to maintain effective insulin production.

Eat peanuts properly to lower blood sugar

However, eating peanuts needs to follow some principles to achieve the best results.

Experts recommend eating roasted or boiled peanuts; avoid using processed peanuts with added salt, sugar or fat, because these ingredients can increase the risk of weight gain and negatively affect blood sugar control.
