- •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.
