People with diabetes should control their blood sugar levels to be within a stable range, i.e., after-meal sugar not exceeding 180 milligrams/deciliter, and take diabetes medication as prescribed by the doctor.

Diabetic patients can eat fruit regularly every day. However, they should avoid eating fruits that are very sweet and limit the amount eaten to no more than 1 portion per meal. They can be eating as a snack between main meals or as a dessert after a meal. This UFABET has compiled 3 types of high-sugar fruits that diabetic patients should avoid.
Banana: Different types of bananas have different amounts of sugar and energy. One medium banana contains 29 grams of carbohydrates and about 14-15 grams of sugar, and is consider a medium-glycemic fruit. Therefore, diabetics should not eat more than half a medium banana per meal.
Let’s continue with the lychee, a fruit with a unique sweet and fragrant taste. It’s so sweet it’ll give you a headache, lol. Lychee contains as much as 5-6 teaspoons of sugar per 2 fruits. It can be said that eating 2 fruits will give your body more sugar than it needs.
Longan is a very sweet fruit. 1 ounce of fresh longan, or about 28 grams, provides 17 calories and 4 grams of carbohydrates. In addition, longan is a high-sugar fruit. 9 longans contain up to 3.5 teaspoons of sugar. If you eat processed longan, such as canned or dried longan, it will provide more energy, carbohydrates and sugar than eating fresh longan. If a diabetic patient eats a large amount of longan, it may be more difficult to control blood sugar levels.
Diabetic patients can eat fruits regularly every day, but should avoid eating very sweet or high-sugar fruits. And should limit the amount eating at a time, not more than 1 portion per meal. You may choose to eat as a snack between main meals or as a dessert after a meal. It is better to eat fruits with a low glycemic index such as grapefruit, guava and berries instead to help diabetic patients control their blood sugar levels well.
