Peanut and Almond Butter
By Sarah HutterReviewed by Maureen Namkoong, RD
Rich and creamy nut butters go a long way when it comes to managing blood sugar and keeping you feeling full, says Cipullo. The individual peanut and almond butter packets now available in stores make it easy to eat healthy on the go. Look for brands like Justin's that only contain nuts and salt with no added oil. Spread some on an apple or banana, or use as a dip for carrot and celery sticks.
Combining peanut butter with well-portioned carbohydrates will help keep your blood sugar in check. You can also swirl a spoonful into nonfat Greek yogurt or oatmeal for an extra protein boost.
