    Sugarcane or sugarcane juice has a low glycemic index but does not lower blood sugar and is not beneficial for diabetics.

    Sugarcane and sugarcane juice have a low glycemic index but a high GL (glycemic load) so they can still affect the condition of diabetics. Therefore, sugarcane and sugarcane juice can still cause blood sugar levels to rise.

    This also means that drinking sugarcane juice too often will increase the risk of diabetes. For people with diabetes, it is recommended to limit this drink and use other alternative foods that are low in sugar or preferably sugar-free to improve blood sugar levels.

    How to drink sugarcane juice for diabetics

    A 240 ml cup of sugarcane juice has 50g of sugar, so the equivalent amount of sugar used will be 12 teaspoons. If diabetics know how to drink sugarcane juice, it will bring some benefits such as anti-oxidation, disease and infection prevention...

    Sugarcane juice should be drunk immediately after squeezing because sugarcane juice is easily oxidized within about 15 minutes after squeezing.

    Drink sugarcane juice in moderation, about 1-2 glasses of sugarcane juice per week to avoid sudden spikes in blood sugar and weight gain.

    The amount of sugarcane juice you take in depends on your physical condition and medical condition, so it's best to consult your doctor before drinking.
