type-1-diabetesmenopause:-grilled-salmon-with-broccoli-and-sweet-potato

Benefits for Type 1 Diabetes: Grilled salmon (4 oz): High in protein and rich in anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health—especially important for those with diabetes. Steamed broccoli (1 cup): Low in carbs and high in fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants that support blood sugar regulation and overall immune health. Mashed sweet potato (1/2 cup): A nutrient-dense complex carb that provides fiber, beta-carotene, and a gentler impact on blood glucose than regular potatoes when eaten in moderate amounts. Olive oil (1 tsp): Healthy monounsaturated fat that can improve insulin sensitivity and aid in nutrient absorption. Lemon juice + seasonings: Enhances flavor without added sugar or sodium.
