Seven Tips On Snack Ideas For Diabetes

HARD-BOILED EGGS
Hard-boiled eggs are a healthy snack for people with diabetes. One large hard-boiled egg provides 6.3 grams of protein, which is helpful for diabetes because it helps prevent your blood sugar from rising too high after you eat.

HANDFUL OF ALMONDS
Almonds are very nutritious and convenient to snack on. A 1-ounce (28-gram) serving of almonds provides over 15 vitamins and minerals, including 0.6 milligrams or 27% of the recommended daily intake for manganese.

AVOCADO
If you have diabetes, snacking on avocado may help manage your blood sugar levels. The high fiber content and monounsaturated fatty acids in avocados make them a diabetes friendly food.

BEEF STICKS
Beef sticks are convenient, portable and diabetes-friendly. What makes beef sticks an excellent snack for people with diabetes are their high protein and low carb contents.

POPCORN
Popcorn is a very popular and healthy whole-grain snack food. It has been deemed a suitable snack food for people with diabetes, partly because of its low calorie density.
