Study Confirms That Certain Fruits Do Not Raise Blood Sugar In Diabetics And Even Prevents Diabetes

A University of Oxford study investigated the effect of fruit consumption and the relationship to diabetes on people both with and without diabetes and examined the effects of fruit consumption on almost 500,000 people enrolled in the China Kadoorie Biobank national study. The participants of the China study ranged in age between thirty and seventy-nine years old, and lived in ten different areas across China. The participants were clinically followed for approximately seven years.
People who did not have diabetes at the beginning of the study and consumed fresh fruit in high amounts had a significantly lower risk of diabetes. What is more, those who had diabetes at the beginning of the study and consumed high amounts of fruit had a significantly lower risk of dying from any cause, as well as a lower risk of developing cardiovascular complications.
