Turnips...
Their effect on diabetes
Turnips are a root vegetable beneficial for diabetics thanks to their low to medium glycemic index and low glycemic load, which helps control blood sugar levels without sharp spikes. Studies indicate their ability to lower blood sugar and increase insulin sensitivity, especially when consumed daily with balanced meals.
Turnips contribute to lowering blood sugar levels and increasing insulin, as shown in a study on mice and another British study on humans, where blood sugar decreased 30-120 minutes after consumption.
Eat it cooked or raw as part of meals with protein or healthy fats to help control blood sugar. It is permitted daily for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes and may be considered a quick replacement for insulin in some cases. It is low in calories (about 28 calories per 100 grams), supports immunity, and reduces bad cholesterol.
