Foods containing insulin used when hungry, good for diabetes

BÍCH NGỌC (theo the healthsite) |

Supplementing foods containing natural fasting insulin is necessary for the body, especially for people with diabetes to regulate blood sugar levels.

Insulin is an important hormone produced by the body's pancreas with the function of regulating blood sugar levels by helping glucose enter cells.

For people with diabetes, their bodies may have trouble producing enough insulin or their cells may not respond properly to insulin. This can lead to high blood sugar levels, which can lead to serious health problems.

Here are some green foods eaten on an empty stomach that improve insulin:

Spinach or Palak

Spinach is rich in antioxidants that help reduce oxidative stress, improve insulin sensitivity and make blood sugar control easier.

Kale

Kale is high in fiber, which helps slow down the absorption of sugar into the blood, helping to prevent blood sugar spikes after eating.

Broccoli

Broccoli is known for compounds that can increase insulin sensitivity, helping the body use glucose more effectively.

Avocado

The nutritional content and monounsaturated fats in avocados can help balance blood sugar and provide sustained energy.

Green tea

Green tea is rich in catechin, known for boosting metabolism and improving insulin sensitivity, making it a good choice for controlling blood sugar.
