7 Fruits With High Sugar Content to Avoid in Diabetes


Grapes are delicious but contain high amounts of natural sugar, which can cause blood sugar spikes if consumed in large quantities.

While cherries are rich in antioxidants and other nutrients, they also contain significant amounts of sugar, especially when eaten in large amounts.

Mangoes are also high in sugar and can affect blood sugar levels.

Figs are another fruit that contains a considerable amount of natural sugar, so it's best to enjoy them in moderation if you have diabetes.

Bananas are also relatively high in sugar compared to other fruits. Opt for smaller bananas and consume them in moderation.

Pineapple is high in natural sugar. It is important to watch your portion sizes if you have diabetes.


Watermelon is hydrating and tasty, but it's also high in sugar. Enjoy watermelon in moderation and be mindful of portion sizes to avoid spikes in blood sugar levels.


7 Fruits With High Sugar Content to Avoid in Diabetes

<p>Recent research led by Scott B. Hansen, Ph.D., at The Herbert Wertheim UF Scripps Institute for Biomedical Innovation &amp; Technology, sheds light on the unexpected involvement of cholesterol in pain perception.</p>

<p>Published in the scientific journal eLife, the study delves into how physical pressure on cells can diminish pain signals, while excessive cholesterol clumps in cell membranes could disrupt this crucial process.</p>

<p>Hansen, an associate professor of molecular medicine at The Wertheim UF Scripps Institute, underscored the significance of their findings, stating, "Excess cholesterol is a feature in many diseases and disorders, including diabetes and diseases of ageing. This could be one explanation for why we see more chronic pain in these groups."</p>

<p>The research marks a pivotal milestone by unveiling the intricate role of cell membrane lipids in transmitting electrical pulses following pressure and force, elucidating the pathway of pain signals from injury sites to the brain.</p>

<p>Hansen said, "It looks like the lipids can be added to that list," referring to the conventional understanding that only proteins possess structures with function.</p>

<p>In a historic move, San Francisco has issued an official apology to African Americans&nbsp;and their descendants for the city's involvement in&nbsp;racism against them.</p>

<p>The resolution, unanimously supported by all 11 board members, acknowledged the systemic discrimination, institutional racism, and targeted violence faced by Black individuals who came to San Francisco.</p>

<p>Racism in America is a deeply ingrained issue that has persisted throughout the country's history. It encompasses various forms of discrimination, prejudice, and systemic inequalities experienced by racial and ethnic minority groups, particularly African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, and others.</p>

<p>“On behalf of the City and County of San Francisco, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors offers its deepest apologies to all African Americans and their descendants who came to San Francisco and were victims of systemic and structural discrimination, institutional racism, targeted acts of violence, and atrocities,” according to the resolution.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The apology is the first step in addressing the city's past.</p>

<p>Supervisor Shamann Walton said, "An apology from this city is very concrete and is not just symbolic, as admitting fault is a major step in making amends."</p>

<p>Unveiling new details about Antarctica's "Doomsday Glacier", scientists have revealed that the Thwaites Glacier has been losing ice since the 1940s. The insights into the melting of the glacier are crucial as it can have a potentially catastrophic impact on sea levels.</p>

<p>The findings were published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Researchers, utilising marine sediment cores, unearthed evidence suggesting a significant retreat commenced in the 1940s, likely catalysed by an intense El Nino event.</p>

Antarctica's 'Doomsday Glacier' has been losing ice since 1940s, and El Nino is to blame: Study

<p>Some chemicals present in e-cigarettes and vapes might increase the vulnerability of vapers to Covid infection, said a new study that highlights potential risks associated with vaping.</p>

<p>Components such as propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin, commonly found in e-liquids, could enhance susceptibility to COVID-19, said the study published in the American Journal of Physiology.<br />
<br />
“Users who vape aerosols produced from propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin alone or e-liquids with a neutral to basic pH are more likely to be infected by the virus, while users who vape aerosols made from e-liquids with benzoic acid — an acidic pH — will have the same viral susceptibility as individuals who do not vape," said&nbsp;Rattapol Phandthong,&nbsp; the lead author of the study conducted by researchers from the University of California (UC), Riverside.</p>

<p>The research, which utilised airway stem cells to generate a three-dimensional tissue model of human bronchial epithelium, revealed a notable increase in ACE2 levels, a crucial receptor for SARS-CoV-2, the virus behind Covid, across all exposed tissues.</p>

<p>Additionally, tissues exposed to aerosols containing nicotine exhibited heightened activity of TMPRSS2, an enzyme essential for viral cell infection.</p>

<p>Professor Prue Talbot cautioned e-cigarette users to exercise prudence, saying, “It would probably be best for vapers to quit vaping for the protection of their health and to stop nicotine dependency."</p>

<p>Alternatively, she suggested opting for e-liquids with an acidic pH or containing benzoic acid to mitigate the risk of enhanced SARS-CoV-2 infection.</p>

<p>“If they cannot stop vaping, it is better to vape aerosols produced from an e-liquid with acidic pH or with benzoic acid to prevent the enhancedS-CoV-2 infection caused by nicotine, propylene glycol, and vegetable glycerin. However, inhalation of benzoic acid has its own risk, and data is still limited on this topic,” she added.</p>

Components such as propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin, commonly found in e-liquids, could enhance susceptibility to COVID-19, said the study published in the American Journal of Physiology. “Users who vape aerosols produced from propylene glycol/vegetable glycerin alone or e-liquids with a neutral to basic pH are more likely to be infected by the virus, while users who vape aerosols made from e-liquids with benzoic acid — an acidic pH — will have the same viral susceptibility as individuals who do not vape," said Rattapol Phandthong, the lead author of the study conducted by researchers from the University of California (UC), Riverside.

Additionally, tissues exposed to aerosols containing nicotine exhibited heightened activity of TMPRSS2, an enzyme essential for viral cell infection.

New study reveals Professor Prue Talbot cautioned e-cigarette users to exercise prudence, saying, “It would probably be best for vapers to quit vaping for the protection of their health and to stop nicotine dependency." Alternatively, she suggested opting for e-liquids with an acidic pH or containing benzoic acid to mitigate the risk of enhanced SARS-CoV-2 infection. “If they cannot stop vaping, it is better to vape aerosols produced from an e-liquid with acidic pH or with benzoic acid to prevent the enhancedS-CoV-2 infection caused by nicotine, propylene glycol, and vegetable glycerin. However, inhalation of benzoic acid has its own risk, and data is still limited on this topic,” she added.

Phandthong noted, “Our findings could also help improve the design of clinical trials involving the use of tobacco products andS-CoV-2 infection." (With inputs from agencies)

<p>France has expelled a Tunisian Muslim cleric Mahjoub Mahjoubi&nbsp;due to what Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin described as "radicalism" and remarks deemed "unacceptable". Darmanin announced the expulsion on Twitter, stating, "The radical Imam Mahjoub Mahjoubi has just been expelled from the national territory, less than 12 hours after his arrest. We will not let people get away with anything."&nbsp;</p>

<p>This decision followed Darmanin's instructions to issue a deportation order against the imam for his alleged extremist rhetoric. "Firmness is the rule," he added.</p>

'Firmness is the rule': France deports Tunisian Imam over 'radical' remarks about French flag

<p>Amid the prolonged war between Israel and Hamas militant group, a report by news agency AFP revealed that a family in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, slaughtered two of their horses to feed their children.

<p>Escaping the war, the 60-year-old Jibriel arrived from nearby Beit Hanun in the aftermath of the Israeli bombardment of Hamas targets.
