Fruit isn’t the problem. Your body is designed to handle carbohydrates, and a rise in glucose after eating fruit is completely normal.In this episode, we break down how whole fruit impacts blood sugar, why fiber matters, and what actually supports steadier glucose responses. We also talk about the difference between fruit, juice, and dried fruit and share practical pairing ideas to help you enjoy fruit without stressing about numbers.If you're living with diabetes or prediabetes and want personalized support from a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist covered by insurance, visit diabetesdigital.co to connect with our culturally aware and weight-inclusive team.
