Worried that fruit spikes your blood sugar too much? You’re not alone. There’s a lot of confusion and fear around fruit in diabetes and prediabetes, so today we’re reframing the entire conversation. 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.
