Notes

Highlights:
  • The isoflavones present in soy make it anti-diabetic and also increases your bodies' energy levels which in turn enhances a good mood which makes soy an appropriate food choice for diabetic patients
  • In addition to balancing blood glucose homeostasis, fenugreek leaves also decrease insulin resistance in cells. Its high soluble fibre content delays digestion and glucose absorption, resulting in a slower rate of digestion
  •  Peanuts are high in unsaturated fat and other nutrients that help your body’s ability to regulate insulin
  • Whole-wheat bread provides a higher amount of fiber and protein.
