A member asked:
It'd be possible that a person with diabetes eat natural sugar from fruits?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The sugars in fruit are the same as sugar from a 10 lb bag of grocery store sugar. There are some advantages to "natural" sugar (vitamins, fiber, slow absorbtion), but the risks are identical to the usual stuff.
