According to diabetes specialist  Dr V Mohan, mushrooms pack a powerful punch in diabetes management.

Mushrooms, low in carbs and calories but high in fiber, can regulate blood sugar levels, aiding diabetes management.

Compounds like beta-glucans in mushrooms enhance insulin sensitivity, improving glucose uptake for better blood sugar control.

Rich in antioxidants, mushrooms protect heart health, reducing cardiovascular risk factors associated with diabetes.

With their low calorie and high fiber content, mushrooms support weight management, promoting satiety and healthy eating habits.

Therefore, Dr  V Mohan suggests including mushrooms in diet for a better and a healthy diabetes management.
