This mango soup with fresh mint is a delightful treat and a great health booster for diabetics. Mangoes are rich in dietary fiber which aids in better glucose management. The low-glycemic index sweetener provides sweetness without causing a spike in blood sugar levels. The lime juice adds a tangy flavor and is also a great source of Vitamin C, which has been found to help reduce blood glucose levels. Mint not only adds a refreshing touch but also helps in digestion. This soup is a perfect blend of health and taste, making it an ideal choice for diabetics seeking a refreshing summer treat.
