    Does hawthorn lower blood sugar? Can diabetics eat hawthorn?

    1.Diabetics can eat hawthorn in moderation, but it cannot be said that eating hawthorn can lower blood sugar. Because hawthorn is also sugary and high in carbohydrates, it is only suitable for small amounts and does not lower blood sugar.

    Hawthorn has the effects of strengthening the stomach and eliminating appetite, invigorating blood circulation and removing stasis, astringent and stopping dysentery. Hawthorn also has the effect of lowering blood lipids and blood pressure. Eating hawthorn can significantly reduce serum cholesterol and triglycerides, and effectively prevent atherosclerosis.

    But hawthorn does not lower blood sugar. Because hawthorn is an acidic substance, long-term consumption can cause acid reflux, stomach upset or stomach pain, nausea, mild diarrhea, etc. Long-term consumption of hawthorn can also aggravate ulcers, and some hawthorn products, such as rock sugar gourds, hawthorn slices, etc., should be fasted.

    2.Hawthorn can't lower blood sugar. Hawthorn has the effect of lowering blood pressure and promoting digestion, and has an auxiliary effect on indigestion.

    Elevated blood sugar is a chronic disease caused by abnormal insulin secretion in the body. It is necessary to take some hypoglycemic drugs for a long time under the guidance of a doctor** to control the significant increase in blood sugar, so as not to cause other complications such as diabetic foot. You should go to the hospital regularly to check your blood sugar, and your diet must be low in sugar, salt and fat.

    Hawthorn has no hypoglycemic effect. Eating more hawthorn is not good for patients with high blood sugar, especially not eating hawthorn on an empty stomach.

    3.Hawthorn does not have a significant hypoglycemic effect, but drinking a moderate amount of hawthorn water is helpful for blood pressure and blood sugar. If you have diabetes, you need to take hypoglycemic drugs under the guidance of your doctor.

    Usually pay attention to maintaining a low-sugar diet, eat more foods with low sugar content, vegetables and fruits, and control the intake of staple foods. The staple food can be mainly rice food, whole grains, and exercise as much as possible. In fact, the sugar content of hawthorn in the fruit is very high.

    Generally, the sugar content of fruits is between 10% and 15%, and apples, pears, and oranges are almost all in this range. But the sugar content of hawthorn is between 20%-25%, which is quite high. Fortunately, hawthorn is also rich in dietary fiber, reaching 3%, which is more than most fruits, slowing down the absorption of sugar.
