Type 2 diabetes requires careful food selection. Some foods may look healthy but can severely affect blood sugar.
Know what to avoid, from subtle sugars in morning staples to heavy carbs in quick meals.
We'll discuss 12 foods that may be affecting your diabetes and provide healthier alternatives.
Milkshakes seem innocent, but Type 2 diabetics face danger. They raise blood sugar due to their high sugar and calorie content.
Additionally, they are nutritionally poor. A smoothie containing low-glycemic fruits and unsweetened almond milk may be healthier.
Dried fruit may look like a healthy snack, but diabetics should avoid it. Dehydration concentrates sugar, making them heavy in carbs.
Eat fresh fruit for sweetness and fiber to better manage your blood sugar.
