What are your opinions on eating nuts with diabetes?

Hi everyone,

I do eat walnuts because they are somewhat lower in carbs compared to other nuts, but I include it in my overall moderation of carbs and diet.

However, recently, a recent acquaintance I met with diabetes told me that I should not be eating nuts since I am diabetic. She said she had cut them out and has since seen great results... which seems strange because diabetic or not, seems they have so much nutritional benefits.

Any opinions.
