Almonds For Diabetics Who Are At Risk Of Heart Diseases
“While all nuts are good and healthy, almonds, in particular, are great for diabetics. They are a good source of protein, fibre, copper and other minerals like zinc and selenium. They are also an excellent source of vitamins, calcium and magnesium.”
But almonds are also high in calories, which is why diabetics need to be careful of how much of almonds they consume in a day. They need to keep a check on their overall calorie intake.
