Having a read round google they can apparently lower BG & blood pressure, help with creating good cholesterol amongst other things they have a lot of good properties it seems. I eat them occasionally with linseed and chi seeds ground up, haven’t noticed if they affect my BG, blood pressure but I do like them - I’m diet only so it may be different for you, maybe if the claims are true it’s worth keeping an eye on your BG when you do eat them
