Diabetes is the effect of uncontrolled blood sugar regulation. If you have, or know someone who has type 2 diabetes try:
Eating more almonds, walnuts, and pistachios. These nuts contain healthy fat that slows the body's absorption of sugar. Be sure to limit how many nuts you eat in one sitting because even healthy fats contain calories, Just six almonds or four pecan halves have the same number of calories as one teaspoon of butter
Eat whole grains. Oat bran, barley, and rye are fiber-rich foods that contain beta-glucan. This soluble fiber increases the amount of time it takes for your stomach to empty after eating and prevents spikes in blood sugar. Keep in mind that these foods are still carbohydrates. Whole grains will still raise your blood sugar, just not as quickly and as high as processed foods
Eat your veggies. Packed with fiber, non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, cucumber, and carrots can also help prevent surges in blood sugar levels while providing essential nutrients
