When you’re in a pre-diabetic state there are some foods that can do more harm than good. Here are 5 prediabetes foods to avoid.

Sugar-Laden Drinks

Any type of food with added sugar is not good for a pre-diabetic individual, even beverages such as fruit juice and regular soda. The same goes for energy and sports drinks, as well as coffee or tea with lots of extra sugar.

For pre-diabetes, it will be better to drink black coffee, unsweetened tea, and water.

Sweet Cakes and Pastries

Cakes and sweet pastries are a definite no-no if you’re trying to cut out on sugar. The same applies to sweetened breakfast cereals, which may be considered healthy at first glance, but when you look at the nutritional label you’d be surprised to find more sugar than expected.

Avocado toast, eggs, cottage cheese, and fresh fruit are better alternatives.

Saturated Fats

A diet that consists of saturated fats will not be good even for those who are healthy. These include cream sauces, butter, and similar items. What you can do is swap them out for healthier alternatives, such as seeds, nuts, peanut butter, olive oil, and fatty fish (of the good kind) in mackerel or salmon.

Processed Meat

Meat that’s processed will certainly be high in saturated fats. Jerkies, pork rinds, and beef sticks are included in this section, as are cured or treated meats. Deli sandwiches may not be considered fast food in some, but they do pose pre-diabetes risks as well.

Fast Food

Last but not least, try and avoid fast food whenever you can. French fries, burgers, and pizza contain not just saturated fat but refined carbohydrates as well, which can cause a spike in blood sugar levels. As an alternative, pick whole grains, starchy vegetables, legumes, and beans, or go with fish, skinless poultry, and seafood.
