And because the amount of insulin secreted is not enough, the glucose in the body cannot be used. When they accumulate in large amounts in the body, they will leak into the blood, thereby causing blood sugar levels to become higher.

Through the above story, doctors have warned to eat less than 3 types of food to avoid diabetes complications

High sugar foods

Foods such as soft drinks, candies, fruits (lychees, longans, watermelons …), dried fruits … contain a very high sugar content, when entering the body will cause the insulin content to become increasingly deficient and blood sugar levels will become more and more difficult to control.

Refined grains

Most of the vitamins, minerals, fiber and protein in cereal grains are lost after being processed into refined grain products. Therefore, refined grains have a high glycemic index, when absorbed into the body will cause blood sugar levels to increase rapidly, at the same time requiring the body to produce more insulin hormone. This leads to the risk of diabetes.

High-Fat Meats and Dairy Products

High-fat meats and dairy products are a source of saturated fat – a bad fat that increases the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease. According to the American Diabetes Association, saturated fat intake should be limited to no more than 7% of total daily calories to avoid the risk of diabetes.

– Meats high in saturated fat include: beef tenderloin, lamb, pork chops, dark poultry, organ meats, fried chicken and processed foods such as sausages, cold cuts, bacon.

– High-fat dairy products include: whole milk, cream, heavy cream, butter and cheeses, such as cheddar (a thick cheese).
