Is a banana good for diabetes?

Question

Accepted Answer

Bananas can be eaten by diabetics, but in moderation, since they're higher in natural sugar and carbs than many other fruits. A small or medium-sized banana, preferably slightly underripe, has a lower glycemic impact. Pairing it with protein or fiber, like nuts, helps slow sugar absorption. Monitoring your own blood sugar response after eating a banana helps you understand what portion works for you.
