Pistachios
The American Diabetes Association calls nuts a “diabetes superfood” and these single-serving packs of Wonderful pistachios can be included as part of a healthy diet for eating healthfully with diabetes, per Pincus. A 1.5-ounce serving of Wonderful Pistachios Roasted and Salted In Shell conveniently portioned has 5g of complete protein, 6 grams of total carbohydrate, 2 grams of fiber, and boasts healthy fats, for a satisfying portable, nonperishable snack.
Pickled foods
Reach for fermented foods—like pickles and sauerkraut—when you’re craving something salty. Thanks to their concentration of probiotics (the good kind of bacteria), you’ll boost your gut health while you’re at it. “While the carb count of pickled carrots, sauerkraut, cauliflower, or traditional pickles can be fairly low, try not to include these on a daily basis if your doctor has recommended limiting sodium,” says Stefanski.
