GI refers to the rate of blood glucose increase after eating a certain kind of food, high GI food, enter the gastrointestinal digestion fast, high absorption rate, glucose release fast, glucose into the blood after the peak high, that is, blood glucose rise high; low GI food, in the gastrointestinal stay a long time, absorption rate is low, glucose release slow, glucose into the blood after the peak of the low, the rate of decline is slow, in short, blood glucose lower. Blood sugar is lower. I diabetics as far as possible to choose FI low food, daily life in the GI lower food is mainly focused on grains, vegetables.
To choose low glycemic fruits - lemons, oranges? , peaches, plums, strawberries? , apricots, cucumbers, unsweetened apples? , dragon fruit, but don't eat more than you need and always monitor your blood sugar. However, hypertensive patients taking antihypertensive drugs? Avoid eating with grapefruit, because grapefruit contains furan coumarin, naringenin, chrysin inhibit the activity of metabolic enzymes in the body, affecting the metabolism of antihypertensive drugs, resulting in accumulation of toxicity.
Choose to eat between meals, when the blood sugar stabilized when the time to reduce a little bit of the main food, or to eat the fruit to be counted in the total calories throughout the day, which can be eaten. My point is that diabetics need to eat a well-rounded diet so that their nutrition is also well-rounded. Fruit is rich in minerals and trace elements, eat in moderation can supplement our body missing nutrients, eat less, eat a light diet, avoid high sugar foods, develop good eating habits, so you will not lose mouth.
But if you have diabetes at the same time, then you need to pay special attention to the diet, because the general sugar content of the fruit is not low, the impact on blood glucose is also greater, so be sure to have a choice to eat, in the case of blood sugar control is more stable, to choose those who have a low glycemic index of the fruits and each time you have to control the amount of food, such as between the two meals with one or two slices of apple, a small piece of grapefruit, a small piece of kiwi. A small piece of kiwi. Fruit is a recommended healthy food for both diabetics and hypertensive patients. Don't doubt that eating fresh fruit in moderation, including diabetics, is very good for your health.
