A healthy diet is an important tool in the fight against type 2 diabetes. We tend to dwell on the things you shouldn’t eat, such as sugary drinks, cookies, and candies. Although they aren’t completely forbidden, you should watch your portion control, especially when managing your blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what other products and foods should you focus on besides the always-recommended plant-based foods, lean proteins, and fiber-rich fruits and vegetables? A spice that is often used in sweet treat recipes may surprise you as one that can help control blood sugar. Endocrinologists and experts say that this spice could help keep your blood sugar in check if you add it to some of your meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An expert in endocrinology at Medical Offices of Manhattan, Dra. Victoria Finn<\/a>, says, “Understanding how different foods affect blood glucose levels helps with making smart food choices and avoiding sugar spikes and drops.” Read the full article.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
