Brief Answer:
Best to avoid

Detailed Answer:
hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I think I should tell you that I'm diabetes, no food should be completely avoided.
Moderation is needed.
Take a slice of pizza.
And compensate for the extra calories in the other meals.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal.
