Overdoses for diabetes

In recent years, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) publishes a list of superfoods that offer essential nutrients for better diabetes management, such as fiber, potassium, healthy fat, magnesium and antioxidants.

These foods, according to recommendations, are important to be often included in the diet of people with diabetes, so they are more complete and healthier.
As with all foods, we need to add the "superfoods" of diabetes to our personalized meal program in appropriate quantities.
All listed foods have low glycemic index (GI) and provide essential nutrients missing from typical Western diet, such as:

• calcium
• potassium
• fiber
• magnesium
• Vitamins A (such as carotenoids), C and E.
