Orange foods do some amazing tasks for us: · They protect the immune system, eyes, and skin. · And they reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease. · They also reduce inflammation with antioxidants. Now, let’s count down the Top Orange Foods for Blood Sugar Control: 10. Clementines These small oranges are full of needed vitamins and they have a low glycemic index, so their fiber and water content will fill you up while keeping blood glucose stable. Additionally, researchers also say oranges are among the healthiest fruits for diabetics. 9. Mango Mangoes contain phenolic compounds, which provide the structure for antioxidants, thus boosting the body’s immune system. This sweet fruit is also a great source of fiber, and we know that fiber aids digestion and lowers blood sugar levels. 8. Butternut Squash Butternut pumpkin or Gramma offers magnesium, potassium, vitamin C, and a wealth of healthy fiber - and that’s how it lowers blood sugar levels. Unlike fruit, you can enjoy a larger portion size of this delicious food. 7. Veggie “Cheese” sauce Making your veggie cheese sauce reduces carbs and adds fiber, along with a host of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It’s simple to make – simply steam your chosen veggies, puree them, and add nutritional yeast for the cheese flavor. 6. Chanterelle mushrooms These unique mushrooms are high in protein and vitamin D, and they’re a low-carb and low-fat food that will help keep blood sugars low. They also boost energy levels because they have vitamins B2, B3, B5, and B6 and iron. 5. Sweet Potato These yummy potatoes also offer fiber, vitamin C, and manganese, which is an important trace mineral for keeping blood sugar levels steady. It is also surprising that one sweet potato has 4 times your daily beta-carotene. 4. Orange Bell Peppers These tasty and colorful peppers have a glycemic load of only 2 so they’re an excellent choice for diabetics. They’re also full of antioxidants and carotenoids and have manganese for blood sugar control. 3. Orange Cherry Tomatoes Orange cherry tomatoes contain even more antioxidants than the red variety to really boost your immune system. A study confirmed that the healthy compounds in orange tomatoes are more readily accessible by the body. 2. Orange Cauliflower The high fiber content of cauliflower, combined with its low carb factor, balances blood sugars, lowers blood pressure, lowers cholesterol, and even improves insulin sensitivity. 1. Healthy Curry This orange-colored dish is #1 on our list because it contains lean protein, lots of fiber from the veggies, and some special benefits from the components of curry powder. Curry powder has turmeric, which contains a powerful anti-inflammatory compound called curcuminoids. --------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER: No part of this channel may be reproduced, transmitted, or distributed in any form or by any means, electrical or mechanical, including recording, or by any information storage or retrieval system without permission in writing from DiabeticsTalk.com.
