Can people with diabetes eat nuts?

Nuts are high-calorie snacks that can easily elevate blood glucose levels. Patients with diabetes must strictly control their diet—limiting intake of sweets, high-starch foods, and high-calorie foods—to avoid compromising glycemic control. It is recommended to consult the Endocrinology Department at a hospital, where a physician can guide appropriate antihyperglycemic medication therapy. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels and HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin) is essential. Additionally, dietary management and physical activity should be integrated into the treatment plan; light physical activity after meals is encouraged.
