Refined Sugars: 

 Avoid manmade, processed sugar (e.g. white sugar, high fructose corn syrup, agave, and fruit juice) 

 

Refined Grains:

Refined Grains are not only bad for your blood sugar but they also stop your digestive system from absorbing minerals

 Packaged Foods: 

 Be cautious about consuming of “foods” with labels as these tend to not be a nutrient dense version of the whole food they are from       (e.g. chips, cereals, cookies, crackers, prepackaged meals, etc.) 2 Consuming processed foods can lead to more nutrient deficiencies  and gastro intestinal distress
