Healthy Fats & Fibre For Diabetes
By Mrs Moo on 22nd May, 2009
Many ppl that i’ve spoken too thinks that healthy fats, fibre and/or protein to a carb-based meal does not affect insulin levels. But truth be told, they can weaken the release of insulin. These nutrients help lower the glycemic load, meaning that blood sugar and insulin levels will not rise as high as they would with a carb only meal. So make sure you check with your diabetes specialist.. and not your family doctor about it.
