Here, a nutritionist will guide you on how to eat mango safely for diabetics.
According to Dr. Swati Singh, a nutrition consultant and diabetes educator in India, diabetics can also eat mangoes but should limit the amount.
Diabetics can still eat mango
Mangoes have a low glycemic index, so when diabetics eat mangoes, their blood sugar levels do not increase immediately. Mangoes also contain a lot of fiber, which helps control blood sugar levels.
Mangoes are also rich in minerals like vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin B, vitamin K, calcium, iron and potassium.
In particular, Mangiferin - a bioactive compound in mangoes - can help control blood sugar levels.
Diabetics can eat 100 grams of mango per day
Diabetics can still eat mangoes, while paying attention to diet and calorie intake.
On average, a diabetic patient can eat 100 grams of mango per day - equivalent to about half a cup of mango, according to India TV.
You should also supplement some protein-rich diet with mango. This will not increase your blood sugar quickly. Like you can eat nuts, cheese or eggs with mango.
