Food confusion is one of the biggest reasons people struggle to improve their blood sugar and A1c. In this Diabetes Foods Q&A episode, Dr. Jedha answers real listener questions about carbohydrates, glycemic index, honey, dairy, cheese, oats, sugar cravings, and the foods that may secretly be spiking your blood sugar, even when they’re marketed as “healthy.”

You’ll learn why low GI doesn’t always mean blood sugar friendly, whether full-fat dairy products are actually okay to eat, why honey still behaves like sugar in the body, and what to do if you feel addicted to sugar and stuck in old eating habits. Dr. Jedha also explains why some common breakfast foods can send blood sugar soaring and what to eat instead for more stable glucose levels.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting diabetes nutrition advice or wondered what foods are truly best for type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, this episode delivers practical, evidence-based answers in a clear and easy-to-understand way.
