Ayurveda Expert Warns Diabetics: Avoid These 3 'Healthy' Foods!

  • Ayurveda expert Diksha Bhavsan identifies three seemingly healthy foods that diabetics should limit or avoid for better blood sugar control.
  • Curd is flagged as 'warming' and slow to digest in Ayurveda, potentially leading to weight gain, sluggish metabolism, and reduced insulin sensitivity.
  • Jaggery, despite being a natural sweetener, can significantly raise blood sugar levels if consumed in excess by diabetics.
  • Certain fruits, when eaten incorrectly (wrong type, large quantity, or inappropriate timing), can increase phlegm, which Ayurveda associates with higher blood sugar.
  • Bhavsan suggests thin buttermilk as a lighter alternative to curd and advises very sparing use of jaggery for diabetics.

Why It Matters: Diabetics should limit or avoid curd, jaggery, and certain fruits as per Ayurveda expert Diksha Bhavsan.
