A question often comes to us from close people and those interested in this type of honey, but the answer to this question will need a lot of explanation.
Therefore, we can answer the question briefly and explain in detail below.
The answer is: according to.
If you use black forest honey in a large, uncalculated way, it will most likely lead to a rise in sugar.
But if you use it in small quantities only until you get used to drinks without sugar, it is safe.
And here’s a straight answer…
Does black forest honey raise sugar?
Yes , black forest honey may lead to high blood sugar in large proportions.
Although this is often uncommon, it has already happened with some people.
Experience: Through the website of the Saudi Stock Exchange
One of the people shared his experience with black forest honey and garlic, which was previously shared by one of the members, and although he was promoting that it helps reduce sugar, it has contributed to raising the sugar level almost 3 times until it reached 300 according to what he said.
But he did not mention the amount he was taking or whether he was eating any sugars or starches next to him.
Therefore, the experiment is incomplete, and it is not possible to judge the effect of black forest honey on sugar clearly.
All we want to emphasize is that the best of things is the medium. Eat it in moderation and you will get its benefits and your blood sugar will not rise.
Does honey in general raise sugar?
Although black forest honey in its properties is different from bee honey from other plants, it is also important to know the effect of honey in general on diabetes patients.
Here we will resort to one of the reliable scientific studies that proved the following:
- Using bee honey instead of sugar leads to a significant decrease in glucose.
- Helps in increasing the secretion of insulin by the pancreas (which greatly helps patients with type 1 diabetes).
- Reducing fats in the blood that may cause atherosclerosis.
But this study was done in comparison with sugar and did not deny that honey does not raise blood glucose.
So if you are still eating sugar, keep track of your blood sugar levels, then start replacing the sugar you eat with one of the natural honeys, and monitor your blood sugar levels again, and you will notice a decrease from the previous rates in the case of using sucrose.
Now back to the Black Forest honey and diabetes, and let’s talk about the most important thing.
After using black forest honey for diabetics
If you are convinced that black forest honey will not raise your sugar significantly, just as a precaution, you should…
You are keen to continuously analyze to follow what may happen in your body, whether high or low.
Some types may be adulterated and others may have any additives added, such as sugar.
Therefore, even if it is raw, it does not raise the sugar significantly, but such types and their continuous use may lead to serious complications.
Therefore, as soon as you notice a rise in your blood sugar after eating black forest honey (by analysis), stop eating this type immediately.
