Type 2 diabetes diet: Best and worst condiments & dressings which affect blood sugar level
Type 2 diabetes is a major, non-communicable disease with increasing prevalence at a global level. The condition results when the body does not make enough insulin, or the body cannot use the insulin it produces. Type 2 diabetes is the leading cause of premature deaths. Improperly managed, it can lead to a number of health issues, including heart diseases, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, nerve damage, leg and foot amputations, and death. Diet is key when it comes to proper management and as such what sauces, condiments, dressing or spices is vital too.
Salsa is a great choice for type 2 diabetics and is commonly made with cooked tomatoes, chili peppers, onion, garlic, herbs, spices, lime juice, and other ingredients unique to individual recipes.
Most salsas are low calorie, no fat, low carbohydrate, and low sodium treats, and it’s the portion size of the foods you’re eating with the salsa you’ll need to monitor.
Other healthy options include mustard, baba ganoush, and hummus.
