Avocado - Did You Know
Let’s talk about one of my favorite fruits—yes, avocados are fruits! Not only are they creamy and delicious, but they’re also a fantastic choice if you’re managing type 2 diabetes.
First up, avocados are low in carbs, so they won’t cause a big spike in your blood sugar levels. That’s a huge win! They’re also packed with healthy fats, which help keep you feeling full and satisfied, so you’re less likely to reach for less healthy snacks.
Plus, those healthy fats are great for your heart, and as we know, heart health is super important when you’re managing diabetes. Avocados are also loaded with fiber, which helps keep your blood sugar steady and supports healthy digestion.
Oh, and here’s a bonus: they’re incredibly versatile. You can slice them on toast, mash them into guacamole, or even blend them into a smoothie. So tasty and so good for you!
Next time you’re at the grocery store, grab a couple of avocados and experiment with adding them to your meals. Your body (and taste buds) will thank you!
