Avoid refined foods. They tend to have a lot more sugar than normal.
Do not trust labels. Use the formula of (grams in carbs) - (grams in fiber) to determine how much sugar something has.
Sugarless foods should never be trusted as such. Some sweeteners have an adverse affect on blood sugar. Again, stick to the formula.
Nuts, fruits, and cheese can have surprising effects on blood sugar, usually a bad surprise.
Vegetables can be your best friend, as they help fill you up and they usually have high amounts of dietary fiber to cancel out some of their carbs.
