[QUOTE="Paul_, post: 2656937, member: 578575"] Blood glucose monitors only pickup glucose. You're right that fructose is processed in the liver, however it's converted to glucose there. This may be released into your system, however if it's not, excess glucose in the liver can lead to NAFLD and can promote insulin resistance in the liver. All fruit contains varying percentages of fructose, glucose and fibre. The higher the fibre and the lower the glucose percentage, the less the fruit will impact blood glucose levels and insulin response. [/QUOTE]
