Type 2 diabetes can eat pineapple

1、 The nutritional value of pineapple: 1. Pineapple has a good effect of food therapy and health care. The bromelain it contains can dissolve the thrombus that causes heart attack, prevent the formation of thrombus, and greatly reduce the mortality of heart patients. 2. The sugar, salt and enzyme in pineapple have the effect of diuresis and detumescence. Taking fresh pineapple juice often is good for hypertension, and can also be used for the treatment of nephritis, edema, cough and phlegm.

Some pineapples are sweet and juicy. Many diabetics keep away from them. In fact, pineapple belongs to low sugar food, diabetic patients can choose appropriate amount. Pineapple contains a lot of cellulose, which can promote the digestion and absorption of food for diabetic patients, and also can dilute the blood glucose and blood lipid of patients. And the pineapple enzyme contained in it has the effect of diuresis, which can reduce the blood glucose and urine of patients with diabetes.

The effect of pineapple on blood glucose is mainly related to GI, and its glycemic index is 66.0, which means that pineapple is easy to increase blood glucose. The level of blood glucose after food intake is not only related to GI, but also closely related to the content of carbohydrate in food. Food with high glycemic index, if it contains a small amount of carbohydrate, although it is easy to be converted into blood glucose, it has little effect on the overall level of blood glucose. Therefore, GI only reflects the quality of carbohydrate, not the actual intake of carbohydrate.

matters needing attention

Diabetics should eat less or no fruit. Because the fruit contains more carbohydrates, and mainly glucose, sucrose, starch. Fast digestion and absorption after eating can quickly lead to high blood sugar, which is not good for diabetic patients. Therefore, diabetes generally should not eat more fruits. However, due to the fruit contains more pectin, pectin has the effect of delaying glucose absorption, therefore, when the disease is stable, you can eat less fruit.
