About our Diabetes Flour
Diabetes flour refers to a specially formulated type of flour designed to help manage blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes mellitus. Unlike traditional flours such as refined wheat flour (maida) or even regular whole wheat flour, which can cause a rapid spike in blood glucose levels, diabetes flour is crafted to have a low glycemic index (GI), meaning it releases glucose slowly into the bloodstream. This helps prevent sharp insulin spikes, promoting better glycemic control.
Health Benefits for Diabetics
Helps Maintain Steady Blood Sugar Levels: Slow-releasing carbs prevent sudden glucose fluctuations.
Supports Weight Management: High fiber and protein content promote satiety, reducing unnecessary snacking.
Improves Insulin Sensitivity: Some ingredients like fenugreek and oats have been linked to better insulin action.
Reduces Risk of Diabetic Complications: Stable blood glucose helps in reducing long-term complications like neuropathy and retinopathy.
