6 Healthy Foods to Control Your Diabetes

Whole-grain, Higher-fiber Foods

Fill up on these to keep from overeating or choosing the wrong foods. Try legumes like dried beans, peas, and lentils. You can even enjoy a black bean and corn salsa with your raw vegetables. “These foods still have carbs, but they have interesting flavors [that help keep you satisfied],” Powers says.

Protein

Powers recommends Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, and lean meats. And don’t forget treats. “Peanut butter on a celery stick is a good fat and protein mix for a healthy, satisfying snack,” she says. You can also snack on a lower-fat cheese stick or a beef jerky stick — but keep an eye on how much sodium is in them, she says. Overall, your eating plan “shouldn’t be boring,” Powers says. “It should include the foods you love with a balance of carbohydrates.”
