Juices & Fruits That Diabetics Should Avoid

Since most fruit juices include high amounts of fruit (which contain sugar), they’re not ideal for diabetics who needs to maintain steady blood glucose levels. As a result, diabetics should stay away from fruit juices with a high glycemic index or high sugar content.

Diabetics really need to avoid the highest sugar fruits, such as:

  • Mangos

  • Pineapple

  • Cantaloupe

  • Honeydew

  • Watermelon

Fresh veggies, on the other hand, tend to have a low glycemic index. This means that fresh veggie juices are perfect for those with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.


Note: We always recommend consulting with your doctor and keeping a close eye on your blood sugar levels when changing your diet. If you’re clear to start juicing, you’re in for a bunch of amazing benefits. Juicing makes it easy to increase your daily vitamin intake and improve your overall health.


Try switching out your fruit juice for fresh vegetable juice, or fruit juice that has low sugar and contains nutrient-packed fruits and veggies.

Instead, Try These!

These fruits and veggies are low in sugar and perfect for a diabetic’s juicer:

  • Berries. Strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries

  • Leafy greens. Spinach, chard, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, collard greens, romaine, and kale

  • Low sugar vegetables. Carrots, cucumber, red pepper, tomatoes and celery

  • Low sugar fruit. Kiwi, avocado, and grapefruit

Although these fruits and veggies have a low glycemic index, you should always keep a close eye on your blood sugar levels!
