Mango and Diabetes: As soon as summer comes, everyone’s mind comes to mind. Because the mango season starts at this time, many types of mangoes in the markets are sold at low prices. Many people like mangoes in fruits. One of the major reasons for this is its fragrance and spicy taste.
But there is a belief among people that diabetics should not eat this mango. For this reason, many people shy away from eating mangoes despite having diabetes. Nutrition Consultant Dr. Arun Kumar On their Instagram page, it is explained in detail whether diabetic patients should not eat mangoes. Let’s know what is the reason.
In this, he said, “Usually many people feel that eating sweet things will cause diabetes. At the same time, diabetes patients feel that if they eat sweet things then their condition will deteriorate. There is also a belief among people that diabetes patients should not eat mangoes.”
But 100 grams mango contains 60 calories, 15 grams of carbohydrates and 1.5 grams of fiber. These 15 grams of carbohydrates contain 8-9 grams of sucrose, 4-5 grams of fructose and 2 grams of glucose. At the same time, if we take 100 grams of rice, then it contains 130 calories, 28 grams of carbohydrates, no fiber and most starch.
Therefore, eating mangoes compared to common rice increases the level of blood sugar by half. And compared to some fruits which are considered less sweet, mangoes have only 10 percent less sugar.
He said, “Therefore, if a person’s blood sugar level is moderate, that is, the HBA 1C level is 6-7, and he is following some dietary restrictions, he can eat 100 grams of mangoes instead of 100 grams of rice. Similarly, if the HBA is above 10, it should not take any kind of starch.”
so friends! If you have moderate diabetes and you are not able to eat even the desired mangoes, then do not worry anymore, enjoy it and enjoy it. But just remember that you should control any food.
