Legumes
Legumes are very nutritious, and they can provide you with over thirty percent of the required daily intake of iron. Beans, soybeans, lentils, and peas are some of the common legumes that you can get around. They are perfect for vegetarians, and they contain a lot of other nutrients, which help attenuate inflammation in diabetic patients. Legumes can also help reduce your calorie intake because they contain soluble fiber, which gives a feeling of fullness. When taking legumes, however, you should do so with a lot of vitamin c in order to increase iron absorption. [6, 7]
