BEST BERRY FOR HIGH BLOOD SUGAR

BEST BERRY FOR HIGH BLOOD SUGAR

I recommend raspberries for people looking to regulate their blood sugar levels. raspberries are high in fiber, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that can significantly aid in blood glucose management. Eating red raspberries can prevent spiking of insulin after meals. The glucose reducing effects especially from the fiber in raspberries can boost insulin sensitivity and help clear excess glucose in the blood, promoting moderate blood sugar or glucose amounts.

For best results, I suggest you pair raspberries with meals high in carbohydrates like oats, broccoli, beans, lentils and quinoa. Dressing your food with raspberry salads or topping it in yogurts are ideal alternative ways to reap the blood sugar management benefits from raspberries.
