7. Helps with Diabetes
People with diabetes need to be careful about what they eat. If they are not careful then their sugar levels can rise beyond normal levels and this can be potentially dangerous for them. The good news is that there are still plenty of foods that diabetics are able to eat quite safely.
One of these foods is shiitake mushrooms. For starters, they have only very small amounts of sugar, helping to prevent surges of sugar levels in the blood. In addition, they contain plenty of fiber and this helps the patient to process food. In addition, the high fiber content will keep the patient feeling fuller for longer.
