Hello, Thanks for the query. All types of fruits in moderate quantity can be taken. But most important is to have strict blood glucose control. Fasting should be < 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% < 6.8. Fruits like papaya, orange, apple, guava, pear, pomegranate, watermelon, other melons, sweet lime & kiwi. Fruits like banana, mango, grapes and chikkoo should be taken in very little quantity. Thanks.
