What fruits are good for people with Type 2 diabetes? |
I am looking for information about what types of friuts are good for people with diabetes. I am wondering what types of fruits are not to high in sugar. It's always good to mix a protein (something like cheese) with fruit then it burns slowers and won't flood the blood with sugar at a fast rate. But some fruits should be avoided.... Look up Low GI foods -- here is a link which might help. http://www.lowglycemicdiet.com/gifoodlis... Click on Fruits - and it will show you which fruits are LOW GI, therefore safer to eat in moderation for diabetics. GUYABANO FROM THE PHILS. Strawberries , blueberries , raspberries. You can eat any fruit as long as you eat only half. But strawberries are really low in carbs. And make sure you eat the fruit with a meal. It helps keep your levels from spiking so high. Strawberries sprinkled with splenda is so good!!! I have type 2 diabetes and eat mostly fruit and vegetables, and some carbs like wholemeal bread, wholemeal pasta and brown rice. My sugars are very good and my blood work is excellent. The best thing to look for in what type of fruit to eat is to make sure it has a glycemic index (GI) of less than 40 and it shouldn't effect your sugar. Only have 2 pieces a day if you are eating a standard Australian/American diet. Any more than that and your sugars will rise dramatically. Check out the site below for GI of foods especially fruit. Do a search on google or yahoo for glycemic index fruit and go from there. Good luck. http://www.mendosa.com/gi.htm All fruits are OK, you just need to regulate your portions. The sweeter the fruit tastes, the less you should eat. All things in moderation. Don't eat fruit if you're blood sugar is high, but otherwise, fruit is good to have in your diet for the vitamins and minerals in them. Grapes can be good, since they're more tart than sweet. |
