Nuts - which ones are best for diabetics?

[Riva_Roxaban]

Bunya nuts are great when they are in season.

Almonds are good, and peanuts actually seem to work pretty well for me.

An old post, but I had noticed early in my journey, this link

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/brazil-nuts-benefits#TOC_TITLE_HDR_9

A concern of mine, was IF diabetes can damage our organs and extremities, couldn't it also affect our brain.

Having had personal experience of a loved one with Alzheimer's, that bothered me enough to follow any leads..

So here seems an appropriate place to just post the link that made me think.

The link covers a large swathe of supposed benefits, but no 7 was the kicker for me, so I bought into it.

Besides, I like Brazil nuts, they offer a nice crunchy snack & taste great

I have 2 most morning as I head out to work

I noted the advice & benefits.
But do realise another may have read otherwise.

I post for information purposes only.


For most of the other posts, Id agree, nuts, love em.
Pistachio particularly..but ones NEVER enough .

I too get spiked by too many of most kinds, but I certainly agree.

A small handful of nuts, i find, fills me up way more then I expected.

A point I took early on was sometimes we're not really hungry, we just think we are.

So those moments we should, as I remember it being described, as "Salute our hunger" with a glass of water, and if hungry 30 minutes later THEN eat.

I find the same happens for me, with nuts.
Eat & wait..and I find any hunger goes away & I feel refuelled for a good while.

Same for everyone ?
Who knows

Maybe worth a go to find out.
