NOT THAT!:
White Bread
You can have bread, but just not the white kind, says Lori Zanini, RD, CDE, creator of The Free 7 Day Diabetes Meal Plan. “White sandwich bread is a refined grain, not a whole grain. When eaten as is, it has a high glycemic index and can directly lead to elevated blood-sugar levels.” Swap white bread for whole grain or Ezekiel bread and choose whole-grain pasta or a legume-based pasta in lieu of regular nutrient-stripped noodles. We like Banza Chickpea Pasta.
