5 everyday foods for lower blood sugar
5. Seeds
Big blood sugar benefits come in small packages… and the tiny but mighty chia seed is proof. A 2017 study found that drinking chia seed water can reduce glucose levels by 39 percent after a high-carb meal. Other research on chia seeds turned up similar results. These tiny little seeds can reduce peak glucose by 35 to 41 percent on average.
The flaxseed is no slouch in the blood sugar balancing department either. A 2019 study found that the fiber in flaxseed helps mice maintain better blood sugar control. It also helped them lose weight and improve the diversity of their microbiome. So, stock up on seeds next time you head to the store, especially chia and flax!
