Conventional thinking for people with type 2 diabetes has been that when eating sweet fruits, the amount should be limited in order to keep blood sugar controlled.
Recently, though, researchers in Denmark wanted to put that theory to the test to see if eating more fruit would actually cause detrimental effects on blood sugar for people with type 2 diabetes.
A group of researchers at the Department of Nutrition at Regional Hospital West Jutland in Denmark looked at patients who were suffering type 2 diabetes and wanted to see if eating sweet fruits would pose the danger that doctors and nutritionists claim it will.
[adrotate group=”5″]In the 12-week study, one group ate more than 2 servings of fresh fruit every day and the other group ate no more than 2.
Markers such as waist size and weight were measured along with blood sugar levels. What the researchers discovered was surprising and could throw the traditional type-2-diabetes diet recommendations upside down.
There was absolutely no difference in any of the markers measured between people who ate more fruit and people who ate less.
At the end of the study, and accounting for other dietary differences, researchers noted there was also not statistical difference in the measure of blood sugar over time, known as the HbA1c test.
It is believed that the high fiber content in the fruit, along with the antioxidant and other nutritional benefits, outweigh and even counteract any detrimental effects fruit sugar would have on the body.
What’s even more important is that type-2-diabetes can be completely reversed using the right diet and lifestyle changes. Follow this 3 step plan and have your type-2-diabetes cured in 28 days…

I am not a particularly religous person but why would god have created a food that wwould be bad for your health…….Mind you…he made a mistake with potatoes !And its not just what we do to them.
NICE!
It really comes down to "processed" food kills you early.
point taken
I have always believed that fruits are ok as they have all the minerals and properties to properly digest fruits. The biggest danger is the processing of our foods and the goodness that is processed out of the natural foods. The body needs natural foods and organics are best.
It depends how insulin resistance you are. Are these people taking medications to counteract the effects?
That’s what I thought. As long as it is not overdone. If you want that fruit gorge on it. You body is telling you something.
It will also tell you when to stop. You won’t feel like eating a fruit. Even though the fruit sellers will tell you it’s good for you. Of course, but not all the time.
Think of it as a vitamin booster or something. Listen to your instincts.
Anything the nature has made cannot be bad after all. Dinesh
Use fresh Bitter Melons with food every day. 3-4 small pieces of bitter melon would be enough with food. You can cook them with meats and eat that food which would be very tasty too and very good for Stomach and very great Power for your Muscles too. Some packets of Bitter Melons tea can be bought from China Herb Stores too. You can drink that tea as you drink other teas. It will help your diabetes too. Don’t use sugars, sweets, grapes, and mangoes. Some piece would be OK.
I have found that when I eat fresh pineapple my blood sugar is lower the next day when I test it. Also I have been on a moderate diet and find that when I eat pineapple my weight drops.
How reassuring
watermelons send my sugar sky high.
