Hi Just a quick, possibly silly question but are bananas really sugary?
Reason i ask is normally i have some ready brek for breakfast with a small teaspoon of syrup (i know but its my indulgence) anyway my lunch bloods are normally fine but last 2 mornings ive had a banana too to try and increase my fruit intake and my lunch bloods have read 10 and 11 instead of my normal below 7?
Just wondered if by adding the banana its increased the sugars - and i dont carb count so have the same dose of insulin.
am i better to cut the banana out and just stick to what i know?
Thanks
