So, below are five salad dressings that you should avoid, especially if you’re trying to regulate your blood sugar.
Ken’s Honey Mustard Dressing
This famous dressing is loved by many people but won’t do you any good if you’re trying to regulate your blood sugar. It is packed with lots of sugar and will likely keep your blood sugar high long after consuming it. The effects are worse if you eat it with foods rich in carbohydrates. Also, combining it with fatty foods might cause digestion issues.
Ken’s Lite Country French Dressing
This dressing is considered light but is packed with lots of added sugar. A single serving contains 10 grams of added sugar.
Good and Gather Raspberry Dressing
This brand doesn’t add preservatives, flavors, and food color to their products. However, their dressing contains 4 grams of sugar per tablespoon and should be avoided by those monitoring their blood sugar.
DeLallo’s Sweet Italian Dressing
From afar, this famous dressing may appear to be a healthy option. However, it is packed with high amounts of fats and sugars. A two-tablespoon serving contains 5 grams of sugar and 9 grams of fat.
Brianna’s Dressing
Brianna’s dressing is sweetened with honey which is considered an added sugar. Individuals trying to monitor their blood sugar should avoid dressings that contain added sugar to be on the safe side. If you want to indulge in any of the salad dressings above, you must use them sparingly.
Studying nutritional labels is an excellent way to determine which dressing makes it to your kitchen shelf and which does not. Pay attention and avoid condiments that are labeled “added sugars.”
