I live away from home on my site. Here the cooks use the flour available in market. That wheat flour is not the same as the flour we use in home. I was reading that white flour causes diabetes. Is that flour available in market causes diabetes (we are using market flour (ata) not that maidah that is very white). Or only mouth causes diabetes. Kindly advise. I am from pakistan.

Eating lots of high-GI foods like white breads and white potatoes can cause weight gain, raising the risk of diabetes, say the researchers. A high-GI diet could also lead to insulin resistance (decreased ability for the body to respond to the hormone insulin), which can lead to diabetes. Let's discuss your problem in detail for better advice and healthy lifestyle.
