Patients with high blood sugar can drink some sour plum soup in small amounts, but be careful not to add extra sugar.
Sour plum soup is mainly a drink made of umeboshi, hawthorn, licorice and other ingredients, which has the effect of promoting salivary secretion, stimulating appetite and promoting digestion. Therefore, diabetic patients can benefit from drinking some sour plum soup in small amounts.
However, it is generally recommended that diabetic patients make their own sour plum soup, because the sour plum soup bought outside will put a lot of icing sugar, which is not conducive to the patient’s control of blood sugar. It is recommended that patients who want to drink sour plum soup to relieve their cravings should make their own at home without adding extra sugar, which will help maintain stable blood sugar.
In daily life, it is recommended that patients with high blood glucose should mainly drink plain water and less beverages, and choose low-salt, low-sugar and low-fat food, and eat more fresh vegetables and fruits with low sugar content, which will help patients control their blood glucose.
