Hi everyone. I love fruit but have been told to limit it because of the sugar content. Can some of you tell me what are the best fruits to eat? Can i have a banana every day or not? Confused im a newbie T2

Hi pinky_69, have some strawberries,raspberries,kiwi fruit,most berries are good for us ...in moderation..an the good thing is. Eat plenty of fresh cream with them. Clive

Do you have a meter? If so, you can find your own, tailor made fruit intake.

For me, portion size is key. And having fruit after a main meal, with a sploosh of cream slows digestion a bit, which also helps.

I can get away with 2 medium strawberries
Or a handful of blueberries
Or half a dozen cherries
Or 1/4 of an orange
Or 1/4 apple

I usually give the rest of the orange or apple to Mr B

I cannot eat bananas, grapes, mangos or anything really sweet like an over ripe pear.

I seem to be ok with pears and plums ... banananananas (never know when to stop spelling that) can sometimes give me a spike so tend to avoid now despite them being my favourite food
