Why is broccoli a good ingredient for diabetics?
Broccoli is a smart option for people with diabetes thanks to its low glycemic index (GI) and high nutritional value. Here’s why it’s helpful:
- Low in Carbs: Broccoli is naturally low in carbohydrates, so it doesn’t cause major increases in blood sugar. With a low GI, it releases glucose more gradually, which helps prevent spikes.
- High in Fiber: The fiber in broccoli slows down digestion and aids in stabilizing blood sugar levels. It also helps you feel full, which can support weight management—important for managing diabetes.
- Loaded with Antioxidants and Anti-inflammatory Compounds: Broccoli contains sulforaphane, which may help lower oxidative stress and inflammation, both related to diabetes complications.
- Rich in Key Nutrients: Broccoli is full of vitamins C and K, folate, and potassium, which benefit overall health, immune support, and heart health—important for anyone with diabetes.
Adding broccoli to meals not only helps manage blood sugar but also boosts flavor and nutrition without a significant carb load.
