I'm a type 2 diabetic and I've been sticking with herbal treatment. I'm really wondering if it's okay for me to eat sabudana. If it's safe, how much should I have? Like, should I be thinking in terms of a daily or weekly amount?
Sabudana (tapioca pearls) can cause a spike in blood sugar levels due to its high carbohydrate content, so it should be consumed in moderation by people with type 2 diabetes. If you choose to eat it, limit the portion size to a small serving (around 14 cup) and monitor your blood sugar levels. Its also important to pair it with protein or healthy fats to help balance the glycemic impact.
