“Eat lychee lower blood sugar” this claim has no scientific basis, is false. Eat a large number of lychee is easy to occur after hypoglycemia, is temporary, the end result is that it will rise blood sugar. Lychee has a high sugar content, glycemic index is greater than 70, belonging to the high sugar fruit. Lychee’s high fructose content can directly stimulate insulin secretion, but fructose needs to be catalyzed by a series of converting enzymes in the liver before it can be turned into glucose to be oxidized and utilized by tissue cells. So if you eat too much lychee at one time, fructose intake, insulin secretion and glucose is relatively insufficient, easy to occur hypoglycemic reaction. However, the lowering of blood sugar caused by eating a lot of lychee is temporary, and the end result is that it will lead to an increase in blood sugar. Diabetic patients should eat lychee in small amounts, preferably between meals. Consult your physician or dietitian for specific dietary combinations.
