Maintaining blood sugar levels under control is extremely sensitive for diabetic patients, amid intensive medical research to identify types of foods that facilitate patients' management of the condition.

In cases of type 2 diabetes, experts often recommend weight loss because of its positive effects that will reflect well on controlling blood sugar levels.

Dr. Joseph Ambani stated that nuts such as almonds, walnuts, and cashews play an important role in this journey due to their richness in nutrients, unsaturated fats, fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals.

Below are the health benefits we gain from eating nuts, especially regarding diabetes control:

Reducing inflammation:

Ambani said that inflammation is related to many chronic diseases like diabetes, and nuts, because of their rich antioxidant properties, can help reduce inflammation.

Controlling blood sugar levels:

The nutritional components of nuts are able to regulate blood sugar levels, thus preventing the development of type 2 diabetes.

Weight control:

Adding nuts to our healthy diet can reduce our feeling of hunger, thereby controlling weight and reducing the risk of obesity, which is a major risk factor for both heart diseases and type 2 diabetes.
