Can my girlfriend eat bananas and lychees if she is diabetic?

Answer: Bananas can be eaten a little, but lychee is best avoided as it is a high GI food.

In order to understand in detail the effect of food GI on diabetic patients, we first understand the GI. When a food is ingested, if the rate of blood glucose increase is relatively gentle and easy to return to the normal level, it means that the blood glucose response to this food is low; on the contrary, the digestion and absorption of food is very fast, the blood glucose rises rapidly, and the body produces a large amount of insulin, and then makes the blood glucose fall rapidly, even down to the normal level. On the other hand, if the body produces a lot of insulin and then the blood sugar drops rapidly, or even drops to the normal level, then the blood sugar response of this food is high. We all know that diabetics are very sensitive to blood sugar. Foods with a faster rise in blood sugar are very dangerous for diabetics.

The glycemic response to various foods varies and is usually measured by the glycemic index (GI), an index used to measure the effect of a particular food or dietary composition on blood glucose concentrations.GI refers to the percentage value of the blood glucose response level in the body of a food containing 50 g of carbohydrate compared with a comparable amount of glucose over a certain period of time (usually 2 hours), reflecting the speed and ability of the food to raise blood glucose compared with glucose. It reflects the speed and ability of food to raise blood glucose compared with glucose.

Foods with high GI (Glycemic Index) have a significant effect on blood glucose. In order to distinguish the effect of GI on blood glucose, we call foods with GI ≥ 70 "high GI" foods, 55 ≤ GI ≤ 70 "medium GI" foods, and GI ≤ 55 "low GI" foods. "For diabetic patients, in principle, do not eat food with high GI. For diabetics, in principle, do not eat "high GI" food, "medium GI" to control. Banana GI is 52, belongs to the "middle GI" food, you can eat some, as for lychee, is the authentic "high GI" food, try not to eat.

In addition to GI, GL (glycemic load, which is the product of the available carbohydrates in a food and the GI of that food divided by 100) is a comprehensive reflection of the nature and intake of sugars in a food, taking into account the effect of the quality and quantity of carbohydrates in a food on blood glucose and insulin.The GL reflects the extent to which blood glucose is affected by the same GI in a food but with different quantities of carbohydrates. In general, when a food has a low GI, the GL is also in a low state; whereas for medium to high GI foods, there is a big change from low to high, so it is very important to control the intake of high GI foods.The GI mainly reflects the effect of the "quality" of the carbohydrates in the food on blood glucose, whereas the GL reflects the effect of the "quantity" of carbohydrates actually consumed on the blood glucose and insulin. GI mainly reflects the effect of the "quality" of carbohydrates in food on blood glucose, while GL reflects the effect of the actual intake of carbohydrates on blood glucose. It makes little sense to discuss GI in isolation from factors such as carbohydrate content and the total amount of food consumed. Therefore, even if bananas are "medium GI" fruits, the weight of a banana is usually around 100 grams (or more), and if you eat a whole banana, the energy intake is still quite a lot, so it is also good to control the quantity of bananas for diabetes.

A ride on the red dust consort laughs, no one knows it's lychee. In order for the favored concubine, to eat lychee from Lingnan in the city of Chang'an, the emperor spared no expense.

Ordered to build a post along the road, prepared steeds, all the way fast horse, from thousands of miles away, the fresh lychee into the palace to the consort to taste, Bo beauty a smile. At that time, the price of a fresh lychee, far more than the equivalent weight of gold.

Nowadays, lychee, has long ceased to be a luxury fruit that can only be eaten by royalty. Every summer, once the lychee ripening season, even the northern partners, you can buy fresh lychee, feast.

Lychee flesh is sweet and soft, can I eat it during low carb ketogenic weight loss? Summer is coming, and I believe that many of my buddies are in a hurry to find the answer online.

This time, let our small team help you test the glycemic performance of lychee.

Lychee Sugar Up Revealed

First, let's weigh the lychees.Total weight 262 grams。

Before I ate, I took a pre-meal glucose reading with an ambulatory glucose meter.4.9，Normal Fasting Blood Sugar。

Next, began to eat, lychee sweet and juicy, no wonder Guifei will fall in love with it, eaten in less than 5 minutes.

finish eating30 minutes.Later, the blood sugar rises toPeak 9.7, and it took another 2 hours for blood glucose to return to preprandial values.

From the results of the evaluation, the lychee's rate of glycemic and blood sugar peaks, far more than many of the tested fruits, no wonder that love to eat lychee that Guifei, but also a fat beauty it.

Lychee isn't low in net carbs either, although, with its sweet flavor and good vitamin C content, it seems, it should never be eaten in excess either.

Those who don't have blood sugar problems and are trying to lose weight are better off without it, and if you want to eat it, eat up to 2 or 3 at a time to get over it.

It is definitely not recommended for people who have blood sugar problems and wish to stabilize their blood sugar.

Students who are ketogenic, in order to maintain the ketogenic state, also must not eat, eat to ensure the withdrawal of ketones.

Finally warm tips: because of individual differences, insulin sensitivity is not the same, the same food, everyone's blood glucose changes, are not quite the same, we try to tell you, the basic situation of the people involved in the evaluation, blood glucose changes in the data is for reference only, if there is any disagreement, please test it yourself oh.

The answer is yes, as long as your girlfriend's blood sugar control is stable in the long term, and postprandial blood sugar is less than 10mmol/L, you can consume bananas and lychees, but you should not overdo it, just in moderation, and you should not eat more! After all, bananas and lychees are eventually converted into glucose in the body, so they should be eaten sparingly! Overall, there are no absolute contraindications to the diet of diabetics, the main thing is to control the total food intake. For diabetics, there is nothing wrong with advocating not eating too many foods with a high glycemic index. However, this does not mean that you should only pick foods with a low glycemic index. The basis of nutritional therapy for diabetes is a balanced diet, which is especially important for diabetics. A major reason why diabetics often feel weak in their limbs is the severe lack of energy and nutrients in the body. The human body needs a certain amount of nutrients and energy every day to maintain metabolism. If the daily intake of nutrients is not enough, the body's metabolism will be disorganized, resistance to decline, and then the complications of diabetes will also take advantage of the situation. r

Balanced nutrition is a good way for diabetics to control postprandial blood glucose. This means that a variety of foods can be consumed in moderation, while mixing foods with a high glycemic index with foods with a low glycemic index to minimize the effect of food on postprandial blood glucose (patient-specific checks and tests have to be done before consumption). r

Especially like carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins, they are the three essential nutrients for the human body, and for diabetics, they are not to be missed. r

1, carbohydrates: including rice, noodles, mixed grains and sweet potatoes and other foods. They can be used as the main source of energy. A diabetic's diet should not be less than 1,200 kilocalories per day, and grain should not be less than 150 grams. r

2. Protein: it should account for 20% of the total calories. If the total calories are high, blood sugar will rise and complications will occur; if the total calories are low, hypoglycemia will occur, and hypoglycemia can lead to weakness, incomplete blood supply to the heart muscle, incomplete blood supply to the brain, and even heart attack, cerebral infarction, and fainting. r

3, a variety of vitamins: diabetic polyuria, often water-soluble vitamins excreted with urine, so pay attention to eat more food rich in water-soluble vitamins. And water-soluble vitamins mainly include vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, folic acid and so on. Patients can add one or two low-glycemic fruits between meals every day. Fruits, like vegetables, are rich in dietary fiber. And dietary fiber has a certain lowering of blood glucose, lowering blood lipids, obesity control, weight loss and other effects, and can increase the sense of satiety, at the same time, but also to maintain smooth stool. However, the vitamin and mineral components contained in fruits and vegetables are not the same, diabetics should moderate intake of fruit to ensure balanced nutrition. More suitable for consumption such as citrus, kiwi, pomegranate, bananas, dragon fruit, mango, etc., but should not be too much consumption, moderation can be! The choice of fruits for diabetic patients is mainly based on the sugar and starch content of the fruits, as well as the glycemic index of different fruits. Control of diabetes in addition to diet, exercise should not be ignored! Answer this way, I do not know if you are satisfied!
