is tapioca good for diabetes - #24447
I am really struggling with my diabetes management, and I've been trying to explore different food options that might help. Lately, I came across tapioca, and I'm curious — is tapioca good for diabetes? I mean, I've seen recipes calling for it, and I remember eating it as a kid — those little pearls in puddings and drinks. But now that I have to watch my blood sugar levels, I’m kinda nervous about adding something new to my diet. Last month, my doctor told me following a low glycemic index diet could help, and I honestly don’t know where tapioca fits in that. Like, does eating tapioca spike blood sugar levels? I’ve been experimenting with different grains and starchy foods, but sometimes I just get confused with the info out there. Some people say carbs are carbs, while others swear by certain options being okay for diabetics. Ugh, it’s overwhelming! So, for anyone who knows, is tapioca good for diabetes or should I steer clear of it? Any personal experiences or advice would really help!! Thanks!
