- Red Onions:
- Red onions are rich in chromium, a mineral that helps enhance the action of insulin, crucial for regulating blood sugar levels.
- They also contain antioxidant compounds like quercetin, which has been studied for its potential to help control blood sugar by improving pancreatic function and insulin secretion.
