If you frequently monitor your blood glucose levels, you’ve perhaps detected that certain foods, especially those high in refined carbohydrates, causes blood sugars to rise. There are some foods that can be a quite dangerous to eat when it comes to stabilizing your blood glucose, especially patients with Type II diabetes.

Here are five foods that you should be extra careful of if you are trying to control your blood glucose:

White rice
This starchy food is a processed form of the grain that has been mostly stripped of its fibrous and protein-rich parts. It can be found in so many different dishes from across the globe that it may appear difficult to evade. White rice should only be consumed in modest portion and it should be combined with other foods that help to reduce the effects of simple carbohydrate on blood glucose.

Note that wild rice and brown rice are higher in fiber, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels, and contains several valuable nutrients that should be a part of a balanced diet. This can be a great alternative to white rice.
Pasta
Pasta contains refined carbohydrates and low protein and fat that causes blood sugars to increase off the charts. You don’t have to totally eliminate pasta to maintain healthy blood sugars, but you can avoid eating large amounts of pasta at once. Instead make it just a small course of a larger meal. Stick to a serving about the size of a closed fist and round out the meal with high-protein pairings like organic, grass-fed ground beef, ground turkey, or chicken and add a large serving of high-fiber, low-starchy vegetables like green salad or roasted broccoli. This combination can help alleviate some of the ill effects of high carbohydrates on your blood sugars.

Be also alert of the types of sauces you are choosing because creamy choices like vodka sauce or Alfredo tend to be loaded with butter and cheese, which contains high amounts of saturated animal fats, known to impact LDL (bad cholesterol) levels, this can be harmful to your heart. Go for sauces made from plant-based foods like marinara, Pomodoro, or a garlic and olive oil sauce, which is best for your heart since it is high in unsaturated fat.

Candy
Candies like hard candies, gummy bears or Skittles, are mostly 100% simple sugar which causes blood sugar to soar sky-high. Eating candies regularly as a snack can be harmful to a diabetes management plan. When you have sugar cravings, try eating a piece of high-fiber fruit like berries, apple slices, or pears.

Chips
Most chips are made from either highly-processed, starchy potatoes or corn, which is then deep-fried in a hydrogenated oil, containing large amounts of trans fats. Instead go for chips made from whole grains like brown rice, lentils or quinoa. Avoid eating chips by themselves and try pairing with a high-protein or fibrous dip like Greek yogurt chip dip or bean dip for a more a balanced snack choice.
