9 foods diabetes patients should avoid (even if everyone else is eating them)
Just because something looks healthy or has a 'low-fat' or 'whole grain' label doesn't mean it's blood sugar-friendly. For people living with diabetes or even those who are prediabetic, this can be a dangerous trap. You grab what seems like a smart snack or a harmless meal, and next thing you know, your blood glucose levels are on a rollercoaster. The truth is, some of the most common foods we eat every day can secretly spike blood sugar levels, mess with insulin sensitivity, and leave you feeling tired, foggy, or even hangry. These aren't your usual suspects like sweets or sodas, they're often hiding in plain sight in your pantry or lunchbox. In this guide, we're calling them out. Let's break down the everyday foods that seem healthy but actually deserve a firm spot on the diabetes no-go list. Because when it comes to managing your blood sugar, knowledge (and a little label-reading) is everything. 9 everyday foods people with diabetes should avoid White bread and maida-based items White bread, bakery rolls, pizzas, and soft buns are all made from refined flour (maida), which acts just like sugar in your body. These carbs are stripped of fibre, so they digest fast and spike blood sugar levels almost instantly. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Bahamas: New Container Houses (Prices May Surprise You) Container House Search Now Undo Switch to whole grain or multigrain options that help stabilise glucose and keep you full longer. Flavoured yogurt Those cute packaged yoghurt cups and fruit-flavoured varieties often contain shocking amounts of added sugar, sometimes more than dessert. The ones with 'fruit on the bottom' or syrup mixes are the worst offenders. Opt for plain Greek yoghurt instead and add your own berries or a pinch of cinnamon. Fruit juices and smoothies Whether it's from a juice corner, breakfast buffet, or health café, even '100% natural' juice is a sugar bomb. Juicing removes fibre, leaving behind pure fructose that spikes blood sugar. Smoothies can be just as bad if they include sweetened milk, honey, or banana-heavy mixes. Whole fruits are always a safer choice. Breakfast cereals Those colourful boxes lining supermarket shelves and hotel breakfast counters? Many of them, even the 'high fibre' ones, are loaded with sugar and refined grains. Cornflakes, granola clusters, and anything with dried fruit or honey-glaze can mess with blood sugar. Stick to plain oats, dalia, or traditional Indian breakfasts like poha and upma. Fried snacks Samosas, pakoras, chips, and frozen snack packs might be tempting, but they're a triple threat: high in carbs, deep-fried in poor quality oil, and packed with salt. These can lead to glucose spikes and contribute to insulin resistance. Swap them for roasted chana, air-fried options, or homemade snack mixes. Sugar-free sweets and biscuits Diabetic-friendly shelves are often stocked with 'sugar-free' mithai, cookies, or biscuits but many contain sugar alcohols like sorbitol or maltitol that still affect blood sugar (and can cause bloating). Just because it says "sugar-free" doesn't mean it's safe. Try naturally sweetened treats like dates, nuts, or DIY low-GI desserts. Full-fat dairy Heavy paneer curries, whole milk, and cheese-loaded dishes might be comforting, but full-fat dairy is high in saturated fat, which can worsen insulin resistance over time. Use toned or skimmed milk, lighter versions of paneer, and limit creamy dishes to the occasional cheat day. White rice Staple or not, white rice has a high glycaemic index and spikes blood sugar fast, especially when eaten alone. It's common in biryanis, khichdis, and daily meals. Try mixing it with dal, sabzi, or swapping it for brown rice, quinoa, or low-GI millets like bajra and jowar. Baked goods and desserts Pastries, cakes, muffins, and doughnuts may be everyone's favourite cheat, but they're packed with sugar, refined flour, and trans fats, a total disaster for blood sugar. For sweet cravings, opt for dark chocolate in moderation, homemade almond flour bakes, or fruit-based desserts. Managing diabetes isn't about giving up food joy, it's about being smarter with what's on your plate. These commonly served foods might seem harmless, but they can quietly wreak havoc on your glucose control. Swap, substitute, and savour, without spiking your sugar.

Health coach shares 5 things you must know 'before blindly loading on protein': ‘You don't need 100g of protein'
Among the many weight loss trends circulating online, one of the most popular is increasing protein intake in meals. Protein is known to keep you fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and support muscle building while burning fat. But does that mean we should load up on protein without caution? Also read | 10 high-protein foods that make weight loss easy, according to nutritionist Things to know before blinding loading on protein.(Shutterstock) Health and nutrition coach Nikita Bardia warned against it. On May 15, Nikita shared an Instagram post explaining the downsides of having too much protein. 'When I started consuming protein, I also started gaining weight. Things you must know before blindly loading on protein,' she wrote. 1. Protein can still make you gain weight, if you're in a surplus If your maintenance is 1800 kcal and you're eating 2100 kcal (even from clean, high-protein foods), you will gain fat. Calories still matter. Indian example: 150g paneer = 270 kcal 1 scoop plant protein = 120 kcal 2 tbsp peanut butter = 200 kcal It adds up fast if you're not tracking your intake! 2. Not all protein is lean protein Many Indian sources are protein-fat combos (paneer, peanuts, cheese, dals). You may think you're eating high protein, but you're also consuming a lot of hidden fat. Also read | Are you vegan? Nutritionist shares 11 high-protein foods to boost daily protein intake naturally Better vegetarian swaps? Swap paneer for tofu Swap peanuts for roasted chana Use Greek yogurt (unsweetened, low-fat) 3. Too much protein without strength training = stored energy. Protein supports muscle repair, but if you're not lifting or training, that extra protein becomes extra calories, often stored as fat, not muscle. Twist: Protein doesn't go to muscle by default. You must give your body the signal (resistance training). 4. Your digestion and kidney function matter. If you're bloated, gassy, or feel heavy after high protein meals, your gut might not be ready for that jump. Fix digestion before you double your protein. Add jeera and ajwain water, fermented foods, and chew mindfully. 5. You don't need 100g of protein overnight. Start small: 0.8g per kg of your ideal body weight. Then build it up with training and biofeedback. Also read | Too tired to cook?
