Replace Cuts of Meats with Lean Protein

Now, let’s address your protein intake. In creating a diabetes diet, you must drop cuts of meats with high fat. They are a terrible choice for you.

Proteins that fall in this class are bacon, hot dogs, ground beef, etc. These options have high saturated fats, which are terrible for Diabetes.

They increase cholesterol levels which causes diabetic people to have cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, etc. That doesn’t mean you have to say goodbye to protein altogether. You can still enjoy it in moderation as part of a healthy diet.

Replace cuts of meats with Lean protein instead. Examples of lean proteins are chicken and turkey without the skin.
