Type 1 Dm: Cinnamon Chia Pudding with Almond Butter and Berries
Why This Recipe Supports Type 1 Diabetes This recipe is blood sugar–friendly because it’s high in protein and healthy fats with moderate, complex carbs, which help slow glucose spikes. It also includes anti-inflammatory ingredients to support overall health in individuals with T1D. ✅ Ingredient Benefits for T1D 🥚 Eggs: Zero carbs, high-quality protein, and rich in choline and vitamin D. Help stabilize blood sugar and support hormone function. 🥔 Hash Browns (1/2 cup cooked): Moderate in carbs (~12–15g), especially when pan-fried in olive/avocado oil to slow glucose absorption. Avoids blood sugar spikes if balanced with protein and fat (like here). 🥑 Avocado: Packed with monounsaturated fats, fiber, magnesium, and potassium. Helps slow digestion, improve insulin sensitivity, and balance post-meal blood sugar levels. 🥥 Coconut Yogurt (Unsweetened): Dairy-free, low-carb fat source with some probiotic benefit (depending on brand). Adds creaminess without added sugar. 🌱 Hemp Seeds (Optional): Add plant protein, omega-3s, magnesium, and fiber — all helpful in reducing inflammation and supporting glucose control. 🧂 Turmeric + Black Pepper: Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. May help reduce insulin resistance and support metabolic health.
