As mango season kicks in, many people with diabetes find themselves asking — can they enjoy this delicious fruit? The good news is: yes, they can — but only in moderation.
Because mangoes are naturally high in sugar, it's important for diabetics to keep an eye on portion sizes to prevent blood sugar spikes.
Health experts, including Dr. Saptarshi Bhattacharya of Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, advise limiting intake to small portions — roughly one thin slice or about half to one cup per serving.
