Beans help control blood sugar levels through a combination of their nutritional composition and the way they are digested.
Here’s how:
1. High in Fiber (Especially Soluble Fiber)
Beans are rich in soluble fiber, which slows down digestion and reduces the rate at which sugar is absorbed into the bloodstream.
This helps prevent spikes in blood sugar after eating.
2. Low Glycemic Index (GI)
Beans have a low glycemic index, meaning they cause a gradual rise in blood sugar rather than a sharp spike.
Foods with a low GI are ideal for managing type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.
3. Rich in Plant-Based Protein
