[QUOTE="hanadr, post: 342344, member: 8110"] Fruits contain differing amounts of different sugars. Fructose, isn't the only one and as it happens, Fructosedoesn't raise blood sugars. It has other nmore complex harmful effects. Glucose, sucrose and maltose all raise blood glucose and need to be consumed with that in mind. Generally whole fruits are better for you than smoothies.Juice isn't really good either. You get all of the sugars and none of the fibre. Berries seem to be better then tree fruit for blood glucose. I personally can eat half a standard size apple or pear. I share with husband or grandchildren. I had half a sharon fruit the other day and it didn't do much. I can't handle banana at all. raspberries, strawberries and blueberries are Ok for me, but I eat very little fruit. I do eat some of my cherryplums when they ripen, but I like to eat them rather underripe [less sugar] I also try to grow Physalis [last season was a wash-out!] those are ok in SMALL amounts. Hana Ps do a Google search for amounts and kinds of sugars in fruits. [/QUOTE]
