Treating type 2 diabetes is likened to a boxing match against high blood sugar. In order to prevent a sharp jump in glucose, certain dietary changes are necessary.

According to experts, some foods can significantly increase the level of sugar in the blood. Some of them are popular and loved by many.

It is noted that sugar, which a person receives from eating food, supplies the body with energy. When its amount is exceeded, sugar in the blood can become a destructive force. People with type 2 diabetes are susceptible to this threat because they either do not produce enough insulin, or the insulin they do produce is not taken up by the cells.

Insulin is a hormone that the pancreas secretes to maintain normal blood sugar level. The absence of this mechanism can lead to irreversible damage to such parts of the body as eyes, nerves, kidneys and blood vessels. Therefore, doctors warn, a person with type 2 diabetes must change aspects of his lifestyle in order to keep his blood sugar under control.

Doctors urge to pay special attention to the diet. Fruits can be one of the most “insidious” foods, they say. Yes, sweet tropical fruits can dramatically increase blood sugar. Among them, mango, pineapple and melon stand out.
