Chia Seeds

Consuming chia seeds may help with blood sugar management. According to several studies, eating chia seeds reduces blood sugar levels and improves sensitivity to insulin. A review of several animal studies conducted in 2020 found that consuming chia seeds may reduce the risk of developing certain diseases, including diabetes. A study involving humans revealed that subjects who consumed 25 grams of ground chia seeds along with a sugar solution exhibited a 39% blood sugar level reduction in comparison to subjects who only consumed the sugar solution.
