Having diabetes limits your food choices but one expert recommends healthy fast food for diabetics that are both delicious and healthy.

According to studies, most diabetics are fond of eating fast food. These food are easily accessible, cheap, and delicious. However, they are also loaded with grease, fat, sugar, and salt.

These ingredients are primary culprits for metabolic disorders especially if you are already predisposed to having one.

According to a report earlier, diabetes is the most expensive disease in the U.S. where most health care spending goes. It is also fast growing to be the number one disease next to heart attack.

Considering the magnitude of the physical and economic consequences of diabetes, it is therefore important to attempt to cut the rate of the disease down.

The primary and effective way to control the disease is through diet.

Amarjeet Singh Bhatia, Chief Medical Officer at Doctor Insta, which is a popular telehealth app in India suggests healthy fast food for diabetics, the Daiji World reports.

His picks for health fast food options are: pizza, muffins, chicken burgers, chicken sandwich, and pancakes.

He says that pizzas are the best food option for diabetics since they are loaded with tomato sauce which is good for metabolism, and are usually topped with vegetables. Just avoid too much cheese and high fat toppings such as sausages, bacon, and pepperoni.

For muffins, as long as they are baked with low fat milk and less sugar, Dr. Bhatia says they are perfect options for breakfast pastry. It also helps if the flour used is whole grain rather than refined. The unpolished grains help stabilize blood sugar level throughout the day.

The same goes with pancakes, whole grain is always better for diabetics. Pancakes are easily available and delicious. As long as you go easy on the butter and use low sugar syrup, this popular breakfast choice is also perfect for diabetics, the Food says.

 For burgers and sandwiches, choose chicken as the main protein ingredient. It has less fats than beef. Avoid beef or pork altogether to achieve stable blood sugar level. Also, avoid too much dressing on the burger. Dressings such as mayonnaise are loaded with salt.

In conclusion, eating out is possible as long as you choose healthy options on fast food for diabetics.
