Eating fish on an empty stomach may increase the risk of diabetes!

As is well known, eating a large amount of protein-rich foods on an empty stomach without consuming starchy foods will lead to the protein being wasted, and it is also not good for gastrointestinal health.

In fact, our real high-protein foods are not milk or legumes, but meat and fish. Meat and fish contain almost no carbohydrates. Except for about 70% water and a small amount of minerals, the rest is protein and fat, with a protein content much higher than that of soybeans.

It is understood that when people eat fish and meat on an empty stomach, it is very easy to overconsume, leading to excessive intake of animal protein. This may disrupt the body's acid-base balance, not only increasing the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and gout, but also accelerating the loss of calcium and triggering osteoporosis.
