Try THESE 3 Diabetes-CRUSHING Foods (DELICIOUS!)

Dear Turapür Today Reader,

It’s no secret that dialing back on unhealthy foods can put you on the fast track to a longer, healthier life.

But if you or a loved one is living with diabetes, eating the right foods can be a matter of life or DEATH!

Because eating the wrong foods can make your blood sugar SKYROCKET…  and even lead to deadly heart disease, nerve damage, or kidney failure.

To make matters worse, sometimes shopping for diabetes-friendly foods at the grocery store is like trying to search for buried treasure.

And when you do manage to find foods that help regulate your diabetes, they usually taste TERRIBLE!

But I’m here to tell you that there are three diabetes-CRUSHING foods that not only taste amazing… they are also incredibly EASY to find!

Two new studies have just been released that offer further evidence that a healthy diet — one that includes fruits, vegetables, and whole grains — can help LOWER the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

Both studies found that just a MODEST increase in fruits, veggies, and whole grains was associated with a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

In other words, you DON’T have to give your diet a complete overhaul to zap the nasty effect of type 2 diabetes!

This diet ‘tweak’ can be as simple as consuming just ONE serving of whole grains each day… or slightly increasing your daily fruit and vegetable intake.

But it’s important to note that not ALL whole grains, fruits, and veggies are ideal for fighting diabetes.

Foods like boxed cereals and breakfast bars are often marketed to shoppers as ‘whole grain’, but they are usually packed with refined whole grains that are NOT good for your blood sugar.

It’s best to stick to diabetes-friendly whole grains like oatmeal. In fact, the new study on whole grains found that those who consumed two or more servings of oatmeal per week had a 21 percent LOWER RISK of developing type 2 diabetes than those who had less than one serving per week.

The same goes for fruits.

It may be convenient to grab dried fruits, but they are more concentrated in sugar and contain nearly THREE TIMES as many carbs as fresh fruits. Instead, opt for fresh fruits like berries, oranges, apricots, and even apples.

As for veggies, foods like asparagus, cauliflower, and artichokes are great for folks with diabetes because they help absorb blood sugar faster than other vegetables.

And don’t think that veggies have to be boring and bland. One of my favorite side dishes is cauliflower rice. It’s a great, blood-sugar friendly side dish that tastes just like regular rice… but without the carbs!

Most grocery stores sell pre-made cauliflower rice, so it’s also convenient.
