Impact of chewing on blood sugar

Eating slowly and thoroughly chewing can contribute to regulating blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes and can reduce HbA1c levels by up to 2% compared to individuals who have difficulty chewing due to tooth loss or damage. A study in Istanbul showed that those able to chew properly had an average HbA1c of 7.48, while those with chewing problems recorded an average of 9.42. Although the impact of chewing is limited compared to the variety of food and meal size, it is a supportive behavior that enhances the body's response to the meal and helps in reducing the likelihood of blood sugar spikes and managing blood sugar levels.
