11 Dangerous Foods That Increase Your Diabetes Risk

Dried Fruit

Fruits are the holy grail of a healthy life, but dried ones are a big no-no. When fruit is dried, the process results in a loss of water that leads to even higher concentrations of these nutrients.

One cup of grapes contains 27 grams of carbs, including 1 gram of fiber. By contrast, one cup of raisins contains 115 grams of carbs, 5 of which come from fiber. You can only imagine the numbers for other dried fruits.

    I’ve only been able to lose 8 pounds in 6 months. I love seafood, and I eat a rainbow of vegetables, prefer lean
    pork and a good high protein steak now and then. Pasta is my downfall, but you threw for a loop with Fruit.

    I’m just looking for a few more years. ( 2 triple AAA, 10 stents, cart art twice)(I did smoke, but stop 11 years ago)
    Thanks for the article.

  2. You have mentioned in your worst foods everything I love. Eating is the most necessary function for life. If you can’t eat the foods you enjoy, enjoyment goes out of your life. Why don’t you tell us how much of the bad foods can we at times for our cravings.

  3. Thanks for the info. Wish my husband, who has type 2 diabetes, would read these. However, this helps with what I put on the dinner table.
