3. Skipping your breakfast
You can develop type 2 diabetes as a result of another bad habit: skipping breakfast. Of course, you may be in a hurry to get to your job or your children’s school, but that doesn’t mean you have to skip it entirely. But have you noticed what happens if you don’t eat your oats or your eggs in the morning? You will end up munching on unhealthy snacks during the day. Depriving yourself of food until noon triggers a series of events that mess with your insulin levels and blood sugar regulation.
However, if you don’t want to end up with type 2 diabetes, try to eat something in the morning. And don’t think about a traditional breakfast if you don’t like it. The point is to eat exactly what you like in a well-balanced combination of fiber, healthy fat, protein, and unprocessed carbs.
And coffee aficionados, continue sipping your beverage in the morning because regular coffee consumption, whether caffeinated or decaffeinated, may lower the chance of type 2 diabetes, according to a review of studies published in Nutrients. The phytochemicals found in coffee, which support maintaining pancreatic beta cell activity, are said to be at least partially responsible.
