Pears are said to be effective in supporting blood sugar control. Diabetics can apply some processing methods to include them in their diet.

Low glycemic index

Pears have a low glycemic index of only 38, making them a low GI food. Low glycemic foods help control blood sugar better, with less impact on blood sugar levels after eating.

Pears are also high in soluble fiber, which helps slow down the digestion of carbohydrates. This helps control blood sugar levels more effectively. Fiber also helps create a feeling of fullness for a long time, supporting weight loss and controlling calorie intake.

How to prepare pears to be good for diabetes

Controlling blood sugar is very important for the health of diabetics. Because controlling blood sugar levels is always stable is a prerequisite to minimize the risk of dangerous diabetic complications, such as kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, high blood pressure...

However, diabetics should have a reasonable pear portion of less than 200g. If eating pears after a main meal, you should only eat less than 75 - 100g to control the amount of sugar absorbed into the body.

You can refer to some salads made from pears, supporting blood sugar control:

Pear and apple salad: Wash and thinly slice the pear, apple, and onion. Mix the salad dressing by dissolving vinegar, sugar substitute, salt, ground pepper, and olive oil. Mix all the ingredients together to create a fragrant, delicious, and easy-to-eat salad.

Pear and cabbage salad: Wash, peel and thinly slice the pear; wash and thinly slice the cabbage (small); wash and drain the blueberries. Saute the mini cabbage with olive oil. Mix the salad dressing with the ingredients including minced garlic, vinegar, salt, sugar, ground pepper, olive oil. Add the sliced ​​pear, blueberries and salad dressing and stir well to complete the salad.

Be careful to choose pears with bright colors, even skin color, not crushed or darkened. Avoid choosing ripe pears because the sugar content in old pears can increase significantly.

Diabetics should avoid processed pear products such as dried pears, canned pear salad, and pear jam because they contain a lot of sugar, additives, and preservatives.
