Celery is rich in active ingredients such as apigenin and mannitol. These components have hypoglycemic effect and are rich in dietary fiber. Eating them can slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the digestive tract and help stabilize blood sugar. Proper consumption of celery by some diabetic patients can prevent the rapid increase of blood sugar after meals and protect the function of damaged pancreas. So celery has a certain hypoglycemic effect.

What food is useful for lowering blood sugar? Vegetables such as bitter gourd, tomato, towel gourd, lotus root, etc.

In addition to observing the two standards of low glycemic index and high nutritional density, please pay attention to the cooking methods of vegetables, and don't add too many condiments, such as salt, sugar, soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, bad oil products and uncertain condiments.

The staple foods are quinoa, pumpkin, buckwheat, soybean and coix seed.

In addition to observing the low glycemic index and high nutritional density, you should also consider the following points when choosing the staple food.

First, look for staple foods rich in dietary fiber. All of the above have this feature. Try to eat less staple foods such as steamed bread and noodles, which have higher glycemic index than rice. If you choose between rice and steamed bread noodles, choose rice.

Second, rice is not as good as the staple food rich in dietary fiber, which is the staple food I listed above.

Thirdly, among the above staple foods, I first recommend white quinoa, which has a high protein content. Protein actually contains nine essential amino acids. No food can do this except it. Protein is equivalent to beef. Dietary fiber reached 7%. White tastes good and is suitable as a staple food.

Meat beef, chicken, duck, quail, fish, etc.

The advantage of the above meat is that there is enough protein. When you are at risk of diabetes, or have diabetes, it is very important to take high-quality protein effectively.

What is the efficacy and function of celery? 1. Slimming celery is a healthy vegetable with low fat and calories. After people usually eat it, they can not only increase their satiety and absorb rich nutrients, but also prevent people from absorbing too much calories and fat. The dietary fiber it contains can also promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and accelerate human metabolism. People often eat celery, which can lose weight and prevent obesity.

2. Calm down and prevent hypertension. In daily life, people can eat more celery to adjust their mood. It contains some trace elements that can directly act on people's central nervous system, and can obviously relieve people's symptoms such as irritability, depression and anxiety.
