The festival of lights is here, and we're here with some tips to help you maintain your blood sugar this Diwali✨️
Implement the following strategies for keeping your blood sugar stable :💥
1.Follow a minimally processed diet:🥗
● Your first dietary step toward a more balanced blood sugar level: ditching (most of)
the packaged foods and focusing on high-quality whole foods such as vegetables,
fruits, whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds, and quality meats and fish.
● Many processed foods are high in sugar, refined grains and carbs, and artificial
ingredients and flavorings while being low in blood-sugar-stabilizing fiber and protein.
2. Have a good fibre intake:
● Fibre slows down the digestion of carbohydrates and the absorption of sugar, which
means you experience a more gradual rise in your blood sugar level after meals.
Include good sources of fibre in your diet.
3.Eat plenty of high-quality protein:
● Like fiber, protein tempers insulin secretion2, leading to a more gradual rise in blood
sugar after a meal.
● Eating a protein-rich breakfast is particularly important because it helps set the tone
for the rest of the day.
4. Consume healthy fats:
● Consume good sources of healthy fats such as nuts & seeds.
5.Switch your carbs:
● simply swap out refined carbohydrates like bread, white pasta, and candy for
fiber-rich, whole-food sources such as whole grains, sweet potatoes, and fruit, which
contain a number of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants essential for health.
6.Balance your meals:
● Eating some protein, fiber, and healthy fat with each meal can help stabilize blood
sugar and manage your appetite.
