    Seafood as a whole is a beneficial food for those who have diabetes. However, preparation and the added ingredients should lean towards the healthy and natural side as well. If you’re wondering what seafood is bad for diabetics, then here are five of them you should avoid.

    Raw Clams and Oysters

    Eating raw clams, oysters, and shellfish is not recommended for people with diabetes as they’re more vulnerable to a certain type of infection in these foods. Make sure to have them cooked really well to avoid Vibrio Vulnificus and add to the complications in your system.

    Fried Fish

    Fried or breaded fish and its counterparts is considered a no-no, largely because they contain large amounts of fats and processed oils. As an alternative, it may be better to cook your favorite seafood in other ways, such as baking, grilling, or broiling them.

    Tilefish, Swordfish, and Shark

    These three should be high up on your list of ‘bad for diabetics’ seafood, mostly because they contain higher levels of mercury compared to other options. It’s best to avoid them and opt for healthier alternatives, such as salmon, tilapia, cod, and tuna, among others.

    Shellfish

    By itself and in controlled portions, shellfish isn’t necessarily bad for people who have diabetes. However, since most of them are prepared with plenty of butter, sugar, and fats, it’s not advisable to buy them at a restaurant. However, making them at home and using healthy options is considered acceptable.

    Crab

    Separating crab meat from the shell can prove to be troublesome, and you’ll also have to be mindful on how you prepare them. Conventional processing such as butter sauce, fat, or cheese is worse as you can increase cholesterol content. You can replace salt with bay leaves and try a more healthy approach if you have crab on the menu.
