People with diabetes can eat bananas. People with diabetes can eat fruits, but choose fruits with low sugar content. If the blood sugar of diabetic patients is unstable, such as fasting blood sugar ≥ 10mmol/L and postprandial blood sugar ≥ 12mmol/L, fruits, not only bananas, are not allowed to eat at this time; If the fasting blood glucose of diabetic patients is less than 7 mmol/L and the postprandial blood glucose is less than 10 mmol/L, they can eat low-sugar fruits. The so-called low-sugar fruits refer to fruits with sugar content less than 14%, such as apples, pears, kiwis, grapefruit and strawberries. And the sugar content of bananas is > 14%. Even if the diabetic is in a stable period, it is not recommended to eat bananas.

Whether diabetics can eat bananas depends on the control of blood sugar in diabetics. Because banana is a fruit with high sugar content and mainly contains monosaccharides such as glucose, the effect of raising blood sugar is obvious. In the case of long-term control of blood sugar, if you want to eat bananas, you can occasionally eat a small amount of bananas. It is generally recommended not to exceed one-third of bananas at a time; If the long-term blood sugar is not well controlled, you must not eat bananas.

Although diabetics can eat fruits properly, they can only choose fruits with low sugar content, such as cucumbers, tomatoes and watermelons. Although the banana tastes fresh and not too sweet, its sugar content is above 14%, which is a high-sugar fruit.
