In daily life, many people enjoy eating fruits, and now we can always get the fruits we want to eat. But are the fruits we commonly eat healthy? Not necessarily, as the use of growth hormones and ripening agents has led to a decrease in the safety of fruits. Here, we list the sources of hazards in several commonly consumed fruits. Let's take a look. Can people with high blood sugar eat fruits? Fruits are generally considered nutritious, but they require special attention for those with high blood sugar. Many people want to know which fruits people with high blood sugar should avoid. Especially fruits with high sugar content should be prohibited from consumption.
1. When eating fruits, choose those with low sugar content. Also, calculate the calorie intake based on their sugar content. Reduce the amount of staple food to maintain the same total calorie intake. It is not advisable to eat fruits with every meal. It is generally considered more appropriate to consume a small amount between meals (when blood sugar is low). Consult a nutrition composition table and choose accordingly based on the condition.
2. Diabetics should eat fewer or no fruits. Fruits contain a large amount of carbohydrates, mainly glucose, sucrose, and starch. They are digested and absorbed quickly after consumption, leading to a rapid increase in blood sugar, which is unfavorable for people with diabetes. Therefore, people with diabetes should generally eat fewer fruits. However, fruits also contain a large amount of pectin, which can slow down glucose absorption. Therefore, it is acceptable to eat a small amount of fruits when the condition is stable.
3. Drinking half a cup of tea half an hour before each meal can inhibit the increase in blood sugar after meals. You can drink Jiwei Tangyi Tea, which contains herbal ingredients that can effectively lower and control blood sugar, making it an ideal choice for diabetics.
4. Dried fruits such as red dates, dried fruits, persimmons, raisins, apricots, longans, and preserved fruits should be prohibited from consumption. Fresh fruits with particularly high sugar content, such as Red Fuji apples, persimmons, Laiyang pears, Feicheng peaches, Hami melons, rose-scented grapes, winter jujubes, and yellow peaches, should also be avoided.
People with high blood sugar do not need to completely avoid all fruits. Some fruits can still be consumed. The above is a brief introduction to whether people with high blood sugar can eat fruits. I hope it can be helpful for people with high blood sugar.
