BÍCH NGỌC (theo the health site) |

Beans are high in fiber, protein, and low in calories, which can promote insulin resistance, making them good for people with diabetes.

Dried beans

According to experts, dried beans contain 15 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber, rich in magnesium, vitamins and minerals that help increase insulin, limiting the ability to spike blood sugar levels.

Japanese soybeans

Studies show that Japanese soybeans contain 18 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber, which can help increase insulin sensitivity, balance blood sugar, improve glucose absorption and metabolism.

Lentils

The protein and fiber content in lentils helps reduce glucose absorption in the body by preventing digestive enzymes from accessing starch, controlling blood sugar levels.

Chickpeas

The nutritional content in chickpeas can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, thereby helping to balance blood sugar levels.

Peas

Containing about 16 grams of protein and 16 grams of fiber, peas can prevent spikes in blood sugar, are rich in vitamins and can increase insulin sensitivity, which is good for people with diabetes.

Note: In addition to a scientific diet, rest, and exercise, people with diabetes need to consult a doctor when using food for good results.
