10 foods that cause blood sugar spike

Sonali Sharma

Foods that are high in carbohydrates and saturated fat are usually the main culprits when it comes to blood sugar rises

Among them are pastas, pakoras, crisps, and hamburgers

Starchy vegetables like potato, corn, and peas can increase blood sugar levels

Soft fizzy drinks and canned fruit juices can increase blood sugar levels

Foods made from white flour and refined grains tend to rank very high in the glycemic index

Even dairy milk counts as a carb, but it’s a carb with a low GI

ketchup can have a disastrous effect on your blood sugar level

low-fat yogurt is not so great for your blood sugar

white rice can raise blood glucose, especially if eaten often or in large quantities

fruit with high GI can spike blood sugar levels
