5 low-glycemic superfoods that can help prevent blood sugar spikes

A clinical study found that higher intake of leafy green vegetables was associated with a reduced risk of type-2 diabetes.
Leafy greens such as spinach, kale, methi (fenugreek leaves), and amaranth are naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in fiber, magnesium, polyphenols, and antioxidants. Studies suggest these nutrients help slow glucose absorption, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce oxidative stress, all of which contribute to steadier post-meal blood sugar levels.

Tips to include in diet:
Add spinach, amaranth, or methi to dal, sabzi, or rotis.
Blend a handful of spinach or kale into smoothies or soups.
Use mixed greens in salads with lemon and seeds to boost nutrient absorption.
