Knowing the type of yoghurt to eat to control your blood sugar levels is crucial if you have diabetes. Greek yoghurt, which is low in carbohydrates and high in calcium and probiotics, must be a regular part of a person’s diet because it is so high in protein. It is thought to be the finest food for diabetics because of its low glycemic index. Additionally, it aids in reducing type 2 diabetes mellitus risk factors. Greek yoghurt is a healthy addition to any diet. You can eat it with meals or as a snack in between larger meals.

3. Sweet potato

Sweet potatoes are another excellent vegetable to maintain healthy blood sugar levels as they are high in fibre and minerals. Since they have a low glycemic index (GI), they won’t cause as much of a blood sugar surge as ordinary potatoes would.

4. Beans

Bean, a type of legume, is a rich source of fibre, B vitamins, and essential elements like calcium, potassium, and magnesium. Beans’ low glycemic index makes them advantageous for controlling blood sugar levels as well.

A new study on more than 3,000 patients with a high risk of heart disease found that those who consumed beans daily had a 35% lower risk of getting type 2 diabetes.

5. Nuts
