How many grams of sugar can a Type 2 diabetic have a day? A: There are no particular regulations on sugar consumption for diabetics, but someone with Type 2 diabetes should not have more than 30-60 grams of carbohydrate per meal, and 15-30 grams per snack, according to registered dietician Amy Campbell. Carbohydrates, and not sugar, cause blood glucose levels to rise and can be harmful to diabetics.
Hummus is packed with protein and healthy fats like olive oil. I prefer to soak my beans for better health and digestion. To further bump up the nutrition, hummus can be lacto-fermented like Wardeeâs traditional recipe. The peppers in this roasted red pepper hummus make it slightly sweet while the lacto-fermentation adds a bit of tanginess. To lacto-ferment, add whey* to the hummus and leave it to ferment on the counter overnight.
To keep it short, No. The simple reason is that Hummus is made from Chickpeas (also known as Garbanzo Beans) and are classified as Legumes. Legumes such as Chickpeas, Peanuts, Lentils etc are not allowed on and as a result, Hummus is not a Paleo friendly food (Check out my list of foods not allowed on the Paleo diet).
