Restaurant Food Choices That Increase Risk of Diabetes
The results of a study that will be published in an upcoming article for the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition indicate that hamburgers and fried chicken significantly increase type 2 diabetes risk. The research followed 44,072 participants who were originally diabetes-free and were part of the Black Women’s Health Study. Consumption of restaurant meals were counted and categorized in the following groups: hamburgers, fried chicken, fried fish, Chinese food, Mexican food, and pizza. All categories were associated with increased diabetes risk except for Mexican food and pizza.
