[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 1031245, member: 93179"] AFAIK cooking [B]any[/B] fruit just breaks it down so that it's easier and so probably faster to digest. I eat a very low carb/ketogenic diet and include a little fruit - mainly berries, but I can manage small portions of other lower carb fruit too. Fruit is an essential part of my diet, as it's one of my favourite foods, and being able to include it in my low carb diet helps make it sustainable long term for me. I occasionally have 1/2 or 1/3 small apple, sometimes cooked and sometimes raw. I make sure that I eat my fruit as part of a bigger meal and have it with some fat: cream, yoghurt, or cooked with butter, or in a low carb muffin. I rarely see any significant spike either at one or two hours after eating it it this way. If you're careful you can eat fruit even if you limit yourself to just a total of 30g carbs a day. You should use your meter to see how any fruit affects your glucose levels and use the results to see whether the results are acceptable or not - i.e. eat to your meter. Robbity [/QUOTE]
