Plant-based diets that are unprocessed are rich in carbohydrates that are good for diabetes. There is also an abundance of dietary fiber, antioxidants and phytochemicals in whole food plant-based diets that help keep blood glucose levels low.
This summary of the research says plant-based diets may be the best dietary option for type 2 diabetes.
This is really not anything new. James W. Anderson, MD endocrinologist reported in the 1970s the HCF (high carbohydrate high fiber) diet was optimal in the treatment of diabetes.
