If you have type 2 diabetes, then you should be extremely careful with what you eat regularly.
A recent study suggests a simple change in breakfast might help people with Type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar levels.
Let's find out more about it.
A study on carbs and diabetes
The experiment shows that choosing a low-carb meal higher in protein and fat, such as eggs with bacon or cheese, can significantly help individuals with Type 2 diabetes to effectively manage their blood sugar better.
This change, made to just one meal, had a significant impact on blood sugar control.
The experiment involved 120 individuals divided into two groups.
One group had typical low-carb breakfasts, while the second one had low-fat, higher-carb options.
The results showed that the low-carb breakfast group experienced reduced blood sugar levels, and some were even able to reduce their glucose-lowering medication.
Why it's important
This experiment shows that a tiny change in the first meal of the day can help individuals with Type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar levels and potentially improve their overall eating habits.
It's an easy adjustment that can lead to significant benefits for those with diabetes.
