Secretary General of PERKENI (Indonesian Endocrinology Association) Em Yunir said that one of the foods that need attention is fruits. Because, there are some fruits that if consumed too much, can accelerate the increase in blood sugar. What are they?
1. Mango
Mango is one of the fruits that must be watched out because it has a high glycemic index. In each fruit consumed contains at least 30 grams of carbohydrates, and 25 grams of sugar. "Mangoes are quite high in their glycemic index, which can affect blood sugar levels. For portions, just a few pieces so that it is not dangerous, "he said during a media gathering at the Jakarta Ministry of Health on Monday, November 11, 2019.
2. Pineapple
Em Yunir said that pineapple is a fruit that must be limited by diabetic patients. Although it feels a little sour, but in one pineapple has a fairly high glycemic index, which is 68. "Pineapple is higher than mangoes. So it must be watched out, "he said.
3. Bananas
Banana is one of the fruits that diabetic patients should avoid. Because Em Yunir said that bananas are very high in carbohydrates. Whereas carbohydrates are always associated with high glucose too. "About 90 percent of bananas contain all carbohydrates. So it is very dangerous if consumed by diabetic patients. Occasionally with a little portion is okay, "he explained.
4. Papaya
Orange fruit with lots of seeds, papaya, is also not recommended for people with diabetes. Em Yunir said that in one portion of papaya contains a high glycemic index, which is 60. "It's better if you still want to eat fruit, replaced with low glycemic index fruits such as lemons, kiwis or just green apples. But the portion is still considered so as not excessive, "he said.
