Foods To Avoid With Type 2 Diabetes

Honey And Maple Syrup

So, you don't want to eat anything with refined sugar. This is why many, many men with diabetes go for honey or maple syrup. After all, they're better for you, right? No, not for men with type 2 diabetes. These sweeteners still have lots of carbs, like sugar. 1 tablespoon of white sugar has 12.6 grams of carbs. And 1 tablespoon of natural honey? 17 grams of carbs. Maple syrup? 13 grams. The carbs these have mean they'll impact a man's blood sugar the same way if he has diabetes. So, men, you'll have to avoid them too! Don't give up your control.
