18 Foods Diabetics Should Steer Clear Of

12. Fried Food

Aside from fries, just about any other fried food is thought to be unhealthy. Diabetics in particular have even more cause for concern. A study has shown that fried food may lead to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, as well as a moderately increased risk of coronary artery disease. Those prepared in restaurants have a good chance of being even worse for you, as you don’t know what type of oil they use to fry in. It would be best to just wean yourself from fried food, and choose something that is prepared using a healthier cooking method.
