Diabetic Food List – Best & Worst Choices

Fatty Fish

Fatty fish such as mackerel, anchovies, herring, sardines, and salmon are among the healthiest food options. They are high in omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA, which can provide many health benefits. Consuming those fats regularly can help people with diabetes reduce the risks of stroke and heart disease. EPA and DHA can protect cells lining the blood vessels, improve the functions of your arteries, and decrease inflammation markers. Those foods are also high in high-quality, lean protein, which can make you feel full and boost the metabolic rate. [2]
