Can people with high blood sugar eat hyacinth beans?
Disease description:
Today when I went to the vegetable market to buy groceries, I bought some hyacinth beans (Dolichos lablab) that I've never eaten before and wanted to try something new. But I'm not sure whether it's safe for people with high blood sugar. May I ask, can someone with high blood glucose eat hyacinth beans?

Patients with high blood sugar can eat hyacinth beans. Hyacinth beans are highly nutritious, containing various nutrients such as protein, vitamins, dietary fiber, and trace elements. They are low in fat and sugar, so moderate consumption will not cause a spike in blood glucose levels. However, it is important to use minimal oil and salt when cooking hyacinth beans and avoid eating large amounts at one time.
