Leafy greens
Leafy green vegetables are full of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients as well as being extremely low in calories. They are also very low in digestible carbs thus having minimal impact on your blood sugar levels. For a person suffering from diabetes, this is all you can ask for.
Green leafy vegetables include:
-
spinach
-
kale
-
bok choy
-
cabbage
-
collard greens
All of them are rich sources of vitamins, such as vitamin C and antioxidants such as lutein and zeaxanthin. These antioxidants protect your sight from the age-related macular degeneration and cataracts, which are common diabetes-related eye ailments.
