8. Oranges
Citrus fruits are well-known for their Vitamin C, but they’re also an excellent source of pectin. Pectin is a form of fiber that affects both your cholesterol and blood sugar positively.
Oranges are also very low GI, so you can eat them without worrying about high blood sugar levels.
9. Blueberries
They may be tiny, yet they’re loaded with all sorts of awesome nutrients: protein, fiber, minerals, and antioxidants.
A 2010 study reported the benefits of adding blueberries to the diet of obese people who had prediabetes. After a couple of blueberry smoothies a day for six weeks, insulin sensitivity increased.
10. Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar has been popular in health food circles for a long time. It seems there is something to the hype.
A study published in Diabetes Care reported that drinking a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water before eating has benefits.
It helped increase sensitivity to insulin and reduced a spike in blood sugar after eating starchy food in those with prediabetes as well as those with type 2 diabetes.
