Are oranges high in sugar?

Oranges are not high in sugar content. Oranges are generally considered to contain about 9% to 13% sugar, which is low in both sugar content and glycemic index, and has a relatively low impact on blood sugar. In patients with diabetes, it is possible to eat oranges in small amounts when blood sugar control is stable. But still need to pay attention to is, although its sugar content is not particularly high, but if diabetic patients eat a large number of, still may have a certain effect on blood sugar, so still need to avoid eating a large number of oranges in a short period of time. The same is true for other fruits, both in terms of their sugar content and glycemic index, but also in terms of total intake, otherwise it will inevitably have an impact on blood sugar. Patients with high blood glucose are advised to visit the endocrinology department of a hospital for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
