Eating in the morning helps to normalize blood sugar levels throughout the day. So don't skip a hearty breakfast to avoid sugar spikes.
Artificial sweeteners
Low-calorie sweeteners increase the risk of diabetes, especially in obese people.
Black coffee
People with high blood sugar should avoid this drink, otherwise with each cup drunk the risk of an even greater increase in glucose only increases.
Lack of sleep
