🥝 3. Kiwis – High Fiber, Low Sugar
Kiwis are a diabetic’s dream fruit:
Low in natural sugar
High in vitamin C and fiber
Boost slow digestion and glucose absorption
One kiwi consists of only about 6 grams of sugar but delivers a lot of benefits, making it a great snack choice.
🍎 4. Apples – A Fiber-Rich Ally
“An apple a day keeps the doctor away”—especially for diabetics. Apples are full of soluble fiber (pectin) that slows sugar absorption. They also help you feel full longer, which can prevent overeating and blood sugar swings.
Pro tip: Eat apples with the skin on for maximum fiber.
🍐 5. Pears – Smooth, Sweet, and Smart
Pears are another low-GI fruit loaded with fiber, especially when eaten with the skin. They are:
Good for digestion
Help improve insulin sensitivity
Have anti-inflammatory compounds that benefit heart and metabolic health
🍊 6. Oranges – Not Just Vitamin C
While orange juice can spike blood sugar fast, whole oranges are low on the glycemic index. The fiber in whole oranges slows sugar release into the bloodstream.
Choose fresh oranges over juice to get:
Controlled sugar absorption
Antioxidants that protect blood vessels
Hydration from natural water content
🍓 7. Strawberries – Sweet with a Purpose
