Vegetable oils are more suitable for diabetics and animal oils are not recommended for long-term consumption.
Vegetable oils, mainly including peanut oil, soybean oil and olive oil, can be considered for diabetic patients when choosing edible oils.
Vegetable oil has more monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids than animal oil, and monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids have the effect of improving glucose-lipid metabolism and reducing plaque formation in moderate amounts. Animal oil contains more saturated fatty acids, excessive intake is not conducive to good health, so it is not recommended that diabetic patients consume animal oil for a long time.
Diabetic patients need to pay attention to less oil and less salt in their diet, the calories of oil are relatively high, which can easily cause further increase in blood sugar.
