Beans: The Sugar Eater
Beans are a highly recommended vegetable for people with diabetes.
Why? They have a low glycemic index and an ideal combination of carbohydrates, lean protein, and soluble fiber.
According to Dr. Daniela Stan, family doctor from Călărași (report by Adevarul.ro), beans help manage blood sugar levels effectively.
How Beans Help Regulate Blood Sugar
Beans are commonly known as “sugar eaters” because their plant fibers slow sugar absorption and reduce insulin spikes.
✔ Slow down sugar absorption
✔ Lower insulin release
✔ Support steady blood sugar levels
This makes beans a key element of a diabetes-friendly diet.
Beans: A Nutritional Powerhouse
In addition to helping manage blood sugar, beans are highly nutritious:
✔ Vitamin B
✔ Potassium
✔ Selenium
✔ Magnesium (essential for muscles, nerves, immune system, bones, blood pressure, and energy)
✔ Calcium
✔ Iron (important for oxygen transport and cell growth)
