It’s 2025, and This Still Needs to Be Said — Wheat Is Not a Healthy Choice for Diabetics
Let’s set the record straight.
Wheat is often marketed as a "healthy" or "better" alternative, especially for people managing diabetes. But the truth is, wheat spikes blood sugar faster than many traditional African staples like fufu, garri, or plantain.
Yes, you read that right.
Even if you’re not diabetic, regular consumption of wheat can be harmful to your system. But for someone living with diabetes, it can be especially dangerous.
Sadly, many people are still clinging to outdated dietary advice. And while I respect medical professionals, it’s important to follow what actually gets results. If your current routine has you making constant hospital visits, it’s time to reconsider your choices.
Health is not just about following popular guidelines. It’s about listening to your body, observing outcomes, and making informed changes.
Choose foods that nourish and stabilize, not those that keep you in a cycle of medications and fatigue.
You deserve better—choose wisely.
