Diabetics & Oranges: Experts Reveal How to Safely Enjoy This Vitamin C Powerhouse

  • Oranges have a low Glycemic Index (40-43), releasing glucose slowly due to fiber, preventing sugar spikes.
  • Medical experts advise diabetics can eat oranges if consumed correctly, boosting immunity with Vitamin C.
  • Always eat the whole fruit instead of juice, as juicing removes fiber and causes rapid blood glucose rise.
  • Oranges offer Vitamin C, folate, and potassium, benefiting heart health and reducing cholesterol.
  • Avoid oranges if you have kidney problems, GERD, or potassium imbalance; consult a doctor if on insulin.

Why It Matters: Diabetics can safely eat whole oranges due to low GI and fiber, but avoid juice and consult doctors for specific conditions.
