If you suffer from diabetes, here are 6 healthy snacks that you can have without worrying about your blood sugar levels.

1. Boiled Eggs

This is a great snack if you are a non-vegetarian. It is quite filling and a rich source of protein as well. You can enjoy this with your favourite seasonings. 

2. Avocado

This is a diabetes-friendly food as it is high in fibre content and monosaturated fatty acids that prevent blood sugar from spiking. You can have this in any form you like; guacamole dip, salad, sprinkled with salt, pepper etc. 

3. Cottage Cheese

Cottage Cheese is a nutrient-packed snack as it contains proteins, vitamins and minerals. Research has shown that it helps regulate blood sugar as well. You can have this plain or add it to salads. 

4. Chia Seed Pudding

This is prepared by soaking chia seeds in milk to obtain a pudding-like consistency and topping it off with granola and berries. It contains omega-3 fatty acids and is therefore very beneficial for people with diabetes. 

5. Veggies and Hummus

This is a great snack with vital minerals and nutrients for people who have diabetes. You can try out different flavoured hummus as well. 

6. Roasted Chickpeas

Chickpeas are a rich source of protein and are quite filling at the same time. You can season them with your favourite spices while roasting them.
