Legumes for Prediabetes

I understand legumes can be great proteins for prediabetes.

Can the be canned?

  1. Hi, thanks for your question. Yes, canned beans are great. Personally, I like to rinse the beans before using them in any recipe. Hope this helps! -Lauren (team member)

    1. Hello , this was a question that I asked my dietician in the past. She said a cup of beans each day along with a low-carb diet, could help lower my blood sugar. They are good for us. Have you had to make many diet changes? We would like to hear more about your journey. Diane (Team Member)

      1. Only issue I have with canned is aluminum and salt content

        1. Thanks for sharing! Do you prefer to cook your beans at home? I've heard the insta-pot is a great way to do this quickly. All the best, Lauren (team member)

        2. Yes, insta-pot is exactly what I use 😀
