Black bread is usually recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes. Such bread serves as an alternative to white, but the British nutritionist Michael Mosley said that such “replacement” can raise blood sugar levels. His words are quoted by the Express edition.
The doctor explained that black bread in stores can give out white, repainted in a different color. This bread contains flavoring additives that have a stronger effect on blood glucose than eating a loaf. According to Mosley, it is better for people with diabetes to consume legumes and whole grains: bulgur, rye, barley, brown rice, buckwheat.
It is these products, as the specialist emphasized, that contain complex carbohydrates that are slowly absorbed into the bloodstream and are not able to provoke jumps in sugar levels. However, they contain fiber, which is necessary to maintain the intestinal microflora.
Earlier, the doctor Elizabeth Salada called a way to determine type 2 diabetes by external signs … According to her, yellow nails and fungal lesions of the nail plate, such as onychomycosis, may indicate a diagnosis.
