Blood Sugar Experiment - Fruits Bad for Blood Sugar?

I'm back with another blood sugar experiment! I want to know for myself: which fruit is bad for blood sugar? Which fruit is best for blood sugar? Which fruit can I eat with pre diabetes and insulin resistance? Let's go!

A little bit about my blood sugar journey... I was told I was insulin resistant in 2017 after a glucose tolerance test my reproductive endocrinologist ordered for me when I was having trouble getting pregnant. And after conceiving, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes very early on. Since then, I've been diligently learning about blood sugar dysregulation and gathering data through constant finger pricks and CGM experiments since I am now at greater risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes in the future. I've learned A LOT about what works and doesn't work for my body, and how my body responds to different foods. I hope this video helps you on your path to a healthier lifestyle!

All diabetics need to do this to find out what and HOW MUCH of any given food, will spike (or not) your glucose.

Great content, thanks!
I'm pre diabetic and starting to take great care to bring my levels to normal.

You are great! I like it when you do your video presentation with 3 items per episode because I can follow all your experiments. You are just fabulous and I can't thank you enough. Stay healthy and bless you and your kids.

Now I don't feel so bad for adding apple or berries to my salad. Thank you for posting.

[patrickholdeman]

I love your videos! You are very precise in monitoring your sugar as it relates to different food intakes and time. I am learning a lot. Thank you!

Your videos have helped me so much when I was first diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Ive gotten control of my diabetes and I got control of my health pretty good.

Thanks for sharing this experiment! I don’t test my blood glucose level but your experiments have been so helpful in bringing awareness to HOW I eat sugar… I’m curious to know how an apple without the peel (i.e., the extra fiber) would impact your blood sugar level!

Very good information about blood sugar spike, thanks ❤❤❤.

I do really appreciate the time you’ve taken for this 😊

I loved the shots with your baby and your puppy ❤

Thank you for the video. Interesting results. I’ve limited my carbs to approx 40 per day for two years. Lost 25 lbs without trying, and maintain a fasting blood sugar below 100. I check my blood sugar daily. Currently, I am insulin resistant-after bombarding myself with sweets for over 50 years. My pancreas is just wore out! I have peripheral neuropathy, for about 12 years now. there is no known cure. The damage is done. I discovered that your peripheral nerves function up to the day they don’t, then there’s no turning back. Thanks again!

This is really eye opening. Thank you! ❤

A couple of things: A. bananas didn't used to cause me to get intensely nauseated(can't even eat half before a strong response); now, they do. B. I ate 2 oranges(I think they were tangerines--one or the other) and I got intensely nauseated again. No other carb food seems to have had this effect. I am diabetic...THIS IS MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE; THANKS FOR YOUR CHANNEL!

[Cinvani]

Super interesting! Specially the part about the banana with the peanut butter, was not expecting that difference. Thanks for this :)

[jeebangurung]

I think 1 apple, orange or banana may be good for health. Bluberry is not sweet. Anyway good info experimental. Thanx.

[wastenotwantnot]

It would be interesting to see what happens if you combined the 3 fruits to equal a reasonable serving size, maybe a cup.
This was a very interesting video. Thanks for your precious time.

[meriharary]

Great video! I think that banana is not a medium one. It looks more like a large one. One large banana is two servings of fruit. So
I think the banana you ate is more like two servings of fruit, thus will create a higher spike in blood sugar. Next time try this with a half a banana or a greener one with more resistant starch.

Thank you for testing the fruits. Your helpful all of us. I am having Greek yogurt with blueberries.❤
