If there’s a silver lining to having type 2 diabetes it’s that you can make a noticeable difference in your condition by the foods you eat each day. These superfoods have been identified as being some of the very best you can eat, and will not only provide help for your diabetes, but will support a healthy and active lifestyle that will help bring you to a healthy weight, if needed.
1. Kale
Much has been said about the virtue of kale in recent years, and it lives up to the hype. It provides a broad assortment of vitamins and minerals, is low in carbohydrates, and contains some protein as well. Try drinking green smoothies made with kale as a way to provide the body plenty of what it needs to function at its best.
2. Apples
Diabetics should definitely heed the “apple a day” advice. This fruit seems specifically suited to help reduce the symptoms of diabetes, and keep blood sugar levels steady. They’ll provide the sweetness you’re wanting without causing complications, and the fiber they contain will help your digestion and keep you more fit.
3. Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Using extra virgin olive oil as your oil of choice is a good switch to make when you have diabetes. It contains healthy monounsaturated fat that can help you lose weight, and does a better job of stabilizing blood sugar levels than eating a diet low in fat, or using other oils that do not contain healthy fat.
4. Beans
Adding beans to many of your meals is a great way to feel full without doing damage to your blood glucose levels. They are digested slowly by the body and also contain minerals and fiber to help contribute to your overall health.
5. Almonds
Almonds are the perfect snack and their crunchy, nutty taste will keep you away from less satisfying snacks that can spike your blood sugar levels.
6. Dark Chocolate
Opting for dark chocolate while avoiding milk chocolate is a great step in the right direction for diabetics. It helps you avoid the sugar added to milk chocolate, while providing antioxidants that support healthy living.
7. Green Tea
Drinking green tea each day will help you get the antioxidants needed to battle free radicals that can exacerbate the problems associated with diabetes. Green tea has been shown to not only be a way to prevent cancer, it contains catechins that can help you lose weight by boosting your metabolism.
8. Berries
Choose any of the most popular berries found at the supermarket and you’ll be helping your condition. They provide antioxidant support, fiber, and vitamins, all while ranking low on the Glycemic Index. No matter if you go with strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, or blueberries, you’ll be doing your body a big favor.
9. Salmon
It just makes sense to eat more salmon if you’re diabetic. The omega-3 it contains helps provide a healthy ratio of omega-3s to omega-6s, an important factor to keep in mind as a diabetic. This helps protect your heart, an important consideration since your risk is double for heart disease.
10. Tomatoes
Tomatoes are high in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that helps prevent heart disease and cancer, and is of great benefit to those suffering from diabetes. They’re also full of other vitamins and minerals that are of particular interest to diabetics.
