Jowar Flour : Jowar flour is a complex carb and will be absorbed slowly in the bloodstream and not cause a spike in insulin. Jowar and all Millets are rich in Potassium.

Flax seeds (Alsi) : Flax seeds are high in soluble and insoluble fibre which prevents surges in blood sugar levels. Hence, this is beneficial to those who are diabetic. Flax seeds are the richest source of plant Omega-3 (n3) fatty acids. Since flaxseeds are not a very good source of sodium they are safe to be consumed by individuals with High Blood Pressure. Flax seeds contain high levels of Lignans which have benefits of anti-ageing and restoring cellular health and are good for the heart. See detailed benefits of alsi, flaxseeds.

This also causes high blood sugar levels in your body. The development of prediabetes comes from uncontrolled eating sugar and refined food products for many years and the classic symptom is if you have excess belly fat.
