Diabetics can eat millet porridge.
The main ingredients of millet porridge are millet and water. Millet is a whole grain and is rich in carbohydrates. When diabetics ingest millet porridge, the carbohydrates will be digested and absorbed into glucose in the body, resulting in increased blood sugar. If you eat too much or do not pay attention to mixing with other foods, it may cause large fluctuations in blood sugar. Millet contains a variety of vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber, which can provide certain nutritional support for diabetics. Compared with white rice porridge, the glycemic index of millet porridge is relatively low, and the effect of proper consumption on blood sugar is relatively small.
