If you’ve ever made your own jam or jelly, you’ll know that they’re made by stewing fruit with a whole load of sugar. As you can imagine, this isn’t good news for diabetics. Because these foods are almost entirely made from sugar, it’s important to avoid jams and jellies at all costs. If you don’t, you may see a serious spike in your blood sugar levels and maybe even insulin resistance.
And while no-sugar jellies and jams sound appealing for diabetics, most of the time, brands simply replace this sugar with fructose instead. This is still very bad for those with diabetes.
