Diabetes is a serious, chronic condition and the problem is
getting worse.

Thus, learning ways to manage this condition
from day to day is also very important. Listed below are ten
fruits that are low on the glycemic index and can help to
stabilize the blood sugars, as well as giving the body the
vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber it needs to stay healthy.

Apples
Apples are a great choice for diabetics because they are loaded
with dietary fiber and pectin, a compound which breaks down
slowly in the body and helps reduce the insulin requirements
of diabetics.

Cherries
Cherries have an extremely low glycemic index rating of 22, so
they will not spike up the blood sugar. They will, however,
provide antioxidants like beta-carotene, as well as vitamins and
minerals. They also contain anthocyanins, compounds which
have been shown to help lower blood sugar levels.

Black Plums
This is another fruit which can actually help to control the
blood sugar. Like cherries, black plums are a rich source of
anthocyanins, but they also contain tannins and ellagic acid,
both of which have proven beneficial for diabetes treatment.

Guava
Guava is another diabetic-friendly fruit; it contains high
concentrations of lycopene and dietary fiber, which are also
helpful for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. It is also a
good source of Vitamin C and
potassium.

Gr*pefruit
Gr*pefruit is one of the fruits recommended specifically for
diabetics by the ADA: it has a very low glycemic index of 25
and is high in dietary fiber. It also contains naringenin, a
compound which can help lower the body’s insulin resistance
and can also help achieve a healthy weight.

Avocado
High in dietary fiber and monounsaturated fats, avocadoes can
also help stabilize blood sugar levels. Diabetics, since they are
at an increased risk for heart disease, should have a diet rich in
these good fats, since it can lower the risk of cardiac disease.

Strawberries
These berries are low on the glycemic index (at 44) and are
high in fiber; their antioxidant properties can also help lower
the risk for heart disease, which is also critical in the day to day
management of diabetes.

Oranges
Oranges rank from between 31 to 50 on the glycemic index,
which means that they will not spike up the blood sugars and
their high fiber content will keep these blood sugar levels on an
even keel. They are also good for weight loss, another
important part of diabetes management.

Pears
Pears are vitamin- and fiber-rich, so can help to stabilize blood
sugars and only have a glycemic index of 38. They have also
been shown to help lower the body’s insulin resistance.

Kiwi
Kiwi has also been shown to support healthy blood sugar
levels, probably due to the fact that it is high in fiber,
potassium and the anti-oxidant beta-carotene. It’s glycemic
index ranges from 47 to 58.
These are all fruits which will help with the day-to-day
management of diabetes and make for a more stable blood
sugar level and overall better diabetic control.
