[QUOTE="Alison54321, post: 1907186, member: 472744"] A blood sugar of 7.1 after eating an apple won't do any harm, especially if that is a peak that falls later on. 7.1 isn't a level that does any harm. Even people without diabetes might expect to reach that level after eating carbs. Though obviously is blood sugars were continuously at 7.1 it would be a concern. People with Type 2 diabetes all have very different experiences, and therefore different needs, and it's important to recognise that, and for you all to respect each other different needs. Fruit is very healthy, it contains fibre, vitamin c, and numerous phytonutrients, that are very good for you. Obviously if eating fruit spikes your blood sugar too much then avoid it, but if an apple only gives you a rise to 7.1 it probably means the benefits of eating the apple far outweigh the disadvantages. There is no harm in walking off that small spike, as walking is healthy, but it probably isn't necessary. [/QUOTE]
