30 Best Foods to Eat for Diabetes

Shirataki Noodles

Shirataki Noodles

The konjac root is grown in Japan and processed into noodles or rice call shirataki. Shirataki is high in glucomannan, a viscous fiber that can lower blood sugar by slowing the passage of food through the digestive tract and increase feelings of fullness.

These noodles have been shown to lower blood glucose levels and reduce risk factors for heart disease in those with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. They may not look like much, but you can't beat a food that's so low in calories and carbs and is packed with fiber.
