which juice is good for diabetes - #27989
I am really worried about my dad's health. He was diagnosed with diabetes like a year ago, and lately, I noticed he’s been drinking a lot of fruit juice since he likes the taste, but I’m not sure if that’s good. This whole thing has me thinking, which juice is good for diabetes? He used to love orange juice, but now he drinks this low-sugar berry juice instead. I’ve read that some juices can spike blood sugar, and that’s the last thing we want! We've also been looking into vegetable juices, which I hear are better options, but then again, does he lose essential nutrients when those sugary fruits are swapped out? I mean, what’s the deal here? Like, is there a specific juice that’s been shown to be beneficial or something? He did a blood test last week, and his levels were kind of high. I am just confused. I want to support him by finding the right choice. Do you think there’s a balance? Am I overthinking this? It's hard to find clear info on which juice is good for diabetes, you know? I appreciate any advice!
