Are Strawberries OK For Diabetics?
Strawberries in small quantities are perfectly fine for diabetics.
They do contain sugar and carbs, which is why it’s best to consume them in small quantities.
Thanks to the high fiber content in strawberries, the fiber slows down digestion, which results in the prevention of blood glucose surges.
However, this smoothie doesn’t just contain strawberries, it contains other ingredients such as fat from the almonds and more fiber from the chia seeds, which slows down digestion even more.
Is Strawberry Shake Good For Diabetes?
Strawberry smoothies if done right, can be extremely beneficial for diabetics.
Strawberry shakes contain a great dose of vital nutrients your body needs.
They can also aid in weight loss, which is particularly important for people with diabetes. Losing weight can significantly improve one’s health.
