Fats Diabetics Should Avoid
Trans Fats
Found in margarine, baked goods, and fried foods, trans fats raise bad cholesterol and worsen insulin resistance significantly.
Animal fats, butter, and full-fat dairy increase LDL cholesterol and inflammation, raising heart disease risk in diabetics.
Saturated Fats
Hydrogenated Oils
Common in processed snacks, hydrogenated oils hide harmful trans fats that hurt heart health and blood sugar control.
Deep-Fried Foods
Fried chicken, fries, and donuts are loaded with unhealthy fats that spike inflammation and disrupt glucose metabolism.
Sausages, bacon, and salami combine saturated fats with sodium, increasing cardiovascular strain and complicating diabetes management.
High-Fat Processed Meats
Fatty Desserts & Pastries
Cakes, pastries, and ice creams pack saturated fats and sugar, a dangerous combo for diabetic blood sugar levels.
