Fill your plate with blueberries
Most diabetics shy away from sweet fruit for fear that the sugar is not good for their condition. But Dr. Friedman explains that healthy fruit choices, such as blueberries, are good for diabetics. “They are packed with dietary fiber, vitamin C, and flavonoids, or phytonutrients that help boost your immune system and fight off infection,” he says.
“Even though blueberries are high in sugar (15 grams of sugar per cup!), their fiber content ensures that the natural fruit sugar is released slowly into the body and won’t cause any unhealthy sugar spikes.” In fact, research shows that blueberries can actually help control blood sugar.
