Low Carb/Gluten-Free Bagels - 2.3 Net Carbs
I tried out a Low Carb Bagel recipe given to me by JWag on the DiabetesForum.com and I am so proud of how these turned out! And they do taste delicious with butter!
Flaxseed - Some call this seed one of the most powerful plant foods on the planet. It may help reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes.
Chia Seeds are superior to other plant and marine sources of essential omega-3 oils. It is also high in antioxidants and fiber. It is high in protein and lipids, low in sodium, and has fewer net carbs than most other grains.
