Dietary control is crucial for diabetes patients. Besides preventing blood sugar fluctuations through a reasonable diet, sugar friends should also pay attention to reducing belly fat to better control diabetes. The latest article in the American magazine "Prevention" published 5 ways of eating that help sugar friends reduce belly fat.

1. Pasta with broccoli and other vegetables。

When sugar friends eat pasta, it is best to eat it together with nutrient-rich vegetables. Broccoli contains vitamin A and fiber, which help slow down the rise in blood sugar.

2. Salmon sandwich。

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids help eliminate chronic inflammation in the body, thereby preventing insulin resistance and diabetes. It is recommended to eat salmon, mackerel or herring twice a week.

3. Beef and eggplant casserole.

Multiple studies show that high-protein diets such as beef help better control blood sugar. Beef protein contains the amino acid leucine, which helps maintain more muscle during weight loss. The more muscle, the more calories burned.

4. Chocolate almond cookies。

Besides almonds being beneficial to the health of sugar friends, dark chocolate is rich in antioxidant flavonoids, which help soften blood vessels and lower blood pressure.

5. Strawberry almond French toast.

One study found that replacing white bread with whole-grain bread can reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes by 20 percent. Strawberries help regulate blood sugar, and almonds contain monounsaturated fatty acids, which help slim the waist. (Chen Zonglun)
