Doughnuts are commonly made from refined white flour that is sourced from GMO farms. Refined white flours are high glycemic foods that spike blood sugar levels. However, doughnuts pose a greater risk to your blood pressure because they have been fried to satisfy your cravings. Beverages that contain refined sugars and preservatives should be removed from our diet plans. According to the American Heart Association; the recommended daily intake of sugar is nine teaspoons for men and six for women. However, in sodas and sugary beverages; the content of sugar is higher than recommended.
