Januji, If blood glucose is well within control, meaning fasting closer to 100 mg, PP 160 to 180 mg and HbA1c%<7, then she can eat grapes but not more than 8 pieces per day. Fruits which should be avoided include mango, banana, grapes and chikkoo. Other fruits like papaya, pomegranate, apple, orange, sweet lime, pear, guava and water melon can be taken but only about 100 g a day. Thanks
