“What foods should be avoided with type 2 diabetes?”

You must see nutritionist to get advice on diet

I wish there was a simple answer to this, but there is none. My recommendation is to avoid simple carbs, sugars and alcohol. Keep carbs controlled, ideally complex carbs like whole grains are good, which are better than whole wheat. Also recommend balanced meals, which means half plate should be non-starchy vegetables and 1/4th should be complex carbs and 1/4th should be protein. Adequate hydration and sleep are also key for good health.

In general foods with high calorie content as well as grease and fat should be consumed much less. However in addition to the quality of food the size of the male and the quantity is important.

There is no food you should completely eliminate but follow St. Paul's advice & be temperate in all things. If you are overwt. then limit portion sizes. It will help if you limit or eliminate foods with high sugar (sugary deserts, candy bars, sweetened drinks, prepared foods with high fructose corn syrup, etc. Fruits are good but some have more sugar than others. Grapes are very high in sugar as are bananas, oranges, grapefruit, mangoes, etc while apples & similar fruit are low in sugar. Fruit juices have high sugar content so eat the fruit but avoid the free juices. The fruit itself contains the fruit fiber that will slow the absorption of the sugar. Artificial sweeteners have been given a bad rape by the sugar industry but they are OK. If you need to lose wt. limiting fats may help as the have more calories per measure than carbohydrates & protein. Mainly though just watch the portion sizes, avoid concentrated sweets and exercise!!
