Status: Allowed with restrictions
Poultry Sausage is classified as conditionally suitable for Type 2 Diabetes based on current dietary assessments. Cold cuts, cheese and spreads are often high in fat and salt while also providing protein and – in cheese – calcium. With type 2 diabetes, particular attention is paid to carbohydrates and their effect on blood sugar – both the quantity and type of carbohydrates are considered. The reasoning given is: processed, often sugar/additives. The assessment is based on experience-based assessments and expert consensus.
