Smart Food Choices to Help Prevent Prediabetes
in this Global News clip, Registered Dietitian Nicole Byrom breaks down practical menu suggestions for those dealing with prediabetes. It’s a short but sweet (and educational!) segment worth sharing.
Why It Stood Out:
Food-focused and realistic: This isn’t about fad diets or extremes, just sensible suggestions you can actually incorporate into your daily meals.
Canadian-based insight: As a Canadian viewer, it’s always valuable to see content from home that’s relevant to our local context and food availability.
Top Takeaways:
Lean proteins and fibre-rich carbs are best bets. Think beans, legumes, whole grains, and lean meats or fish, these help keep blood sugar levels steady.
Veggies are key, especially non-starchy ones like dark leafy greens, broccoli, peppers, and asparagus.
Mind your beverages, watch out for hidden sugars in smoothies or flavored drinks.
