Here's a recent study on olive oil - https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JAHA.124.035034
If you are prediabetic or diabetic - you want to keep fats low and low on the glycemic index. Oatmeal and lentils don't raise blood sugars for everyone.

This article clearly states that legumes, including chickpeas, can (not 'do') yield a reduced glycemic response (their term), but it does not say that such foods produce NO glycemic response. So, I'll say it again: carbs = insulin. Just ask anyone knocked out of ketosis by a couple of mouthsful of chickpeas. Or, by eating just ten or fifteen blueberries, also an excellent food.

This is not to say that incorporating carefully measured volumes or mass of whatever a reasonably diet might include, with all its benefits, should be eschewed just because of even a low glycemic index. Eating sensibly, carefully, and mindful of the results of ingesting most anything is a responsible way to eat.
