Sugar lovers eat fruit? Need to remember these 6 points of advice

  Fruit is a necessity in our lives, but for diabetics it is not something they can eat whenever they want. If you want to eat, you can’t eat, you can’t eat. In fact, after mastering the consumption skills, fruits and so is not a problem, but also can help sugar lovers more healthy, so eat fruit when remembering these 6 points of advice is not a big problem.  1.Why should I eat fruit?  The latest research shows that people who maintain the habit of consuming fresh fruit have a significantly lower risk of developing diabetes; diabetics with the same habit have a lower risk of developing cardiovascular complications of diabetes and a lower risk of death. Compared to diabetics who consumed very little fruit, they had a 28% and 13% lower risk of developing diabetic microvascular complications and macrovascular complications, respectively.  The sugars in fruits are not metabolized like refined sugars, and fruits are a good source of dietary fiber, minerals and antioxidants (vitamins, polyphenols), which regulate the composition and metabolic activity of intestinal microorganisms, thereby reducing the risk of diabetes as well as reducing the development of complications in diabetics.  2. Under what circumstances can I eat fruits?  For sugar lovers, fasting blood sugar is below 7.8mmol/L, 2 hours after meal blood sugar is below 10mmol/L, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) control is below 7.5%, and there is no recent blood sugar “roller coaster” phenomenon (high and low) can eat fruit. When blood sugar control is not ideal, you can eat tomatoes, cucumbers and other vegetables as fruits, and then choose fruits when blood sugar is stable.  3.What fruits are good to choose?  Sugar lovers need to choose fruits with low glycemic load, low glycemic index and freshness. Fruit color and shape as diverse as possible. Remember that fruit juice is not the same as fruit. Fruit juice has a high glycemic load, which can cause blood sugar to rise and is not conducive to blood sugar control.  Studies have shown that flavonoid-rich vegetables and fruits are associated with lower glycated hemoglobin and fasting blood glucose levels in glucose lovers. Increasing the intake of flavonoid vegetables and fruits is associated with a 30% reduction in the risk of combined retinopathy in diabetics. Oranges, lemons, grapes, cherries, grapefruit and kiwi are particularly rich sources of flavonoids.  4.How much fruit can I eat per day?  It is recommended that you consume 200 grams of fresh fruit (roughly the size of your own fist) per day, in 1 to 2 servings. If you do not eat fruits at the beginning of the disease, you can eat fruits after your blood sugar is well controlled, and you need to pay attention to the total energy at this time. For example, about 200 grams of apple contains about 90 kcal, so when you increase the intake of fruit, you should reduce half a tael (25 grams) of main food.  5.When is it better to eat fruit?  It is recommended to eat fruit between meals, 100 grams each time, or when you are hungry and after physical activity, as a calorie and nutrient supplement. It is usually considered better to add a meal at 9-10 am, 3-4 pm and before going to bed.  It is recommended to measure blood glucose before eating fruits and 2 hours after eating fruits, as the response of blood glucose increase may be different for different diabetic patients under the condition of eating the same fruits.
