Grilled Turkey Breast
Once you reach your 40s, your risk of developing diabetes increases significantly. One of the best ways to protect against spikes in blood sugar is to eat protein. Grilled turkey breast is very low in fat but really packs a protein punch. Protein can also help women as they begin to approach menopause, a time in which lean muscle begins to decline and fat increases. Of course, lean chicken filet, pork and lean cuts of beef (sirloin in particular) are other delicious options for getting your protein in-take. If you aren’t a meat-eater, go with eggs and Greek yogurt.
