A member asked:
Which is better almond flour or coconut flour for diabetes type2? also it should be low in cholesterol& ldl
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both are good: If you aren't familiar with the concept of glycemic index (how much a given food is expected to raise your blood sugar) that is worth learning about. Coconut flour has a higher index than almond. Both have important nutrients (to include healthy fats) and both are much better for you than wheat flour.
