Read More »You may want to reduce sugar intake, but taming your sweet tooth can be incredibly difficult. Maybe you’ve already cut out processed sugars but didn’t realize how much sugar fruit contains. Or maybe you live with diabetes and want to know which fruits will have the least impact on your blood sugar. While fruit provides many important nutrients, some varieties are higher in sugar than others. Learn which fruits have the lowest sugar content to satisfy your sweet tooth without breaking the sugar bank. 1. Lemons and limes High in vitamin C, lemons and their green counterparts are fairly sour fruits. There are only about 1.13 grams (g) of sugar in a lime and 2.1 g in a lemon . This makes them the perfect flavorful, low sugar addition to a glass of water. 2. Raspberries With only a little over 5 g — a bit more than a teaspoon — of sugar per cup and lots of fiber to help fill you up, raspberries are one of several amazing berries to make the list. 3. Strawberries Considering how sweet and delicious they are, strawberries are surprisingly low in sugar. One cup of raw strawberries has about 7 g of sugar and more than 100% of the recommended daily vitamin C intake. 4. Blackberries Blackberries also have only 7 g of sugar per cup. And, as a bonus, these dark-colored berries are high in antioxidants and fiber. 5. Kiwis These fuzzy green-fleshed fruits are technically considered a type of berry. Kiwis, or kiwifruits, are rich in vitamin C and low in sugar, with just 6.7 g of sugar per fruit. You can find kiwis all year round at the grocery store. 6. Grapefruit Another citrus fruit to make the list is grapefruit. While grapefruits certainly don’t taste as sweet as grapes, they make a great addition to breakfast, with only 10.6 g of sugar in half a grapefruit. 7. Avocado While they may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think of fruit, avocados are indeed fruits and naturally low in sugar. An entire raw avocado has only about 1 g of sugar. Avocados also have a lot of healthy fats, which will help keep you feeling full. 8. Watermelon Watermelons are the iconic summer fruit. They may seem like a treat, but they’re low in sugar. A whole cup of diced watermelon has less than 10 g of sugar. A bonus of eating watermelon is it’s a great source of electrolytes, vitamin A, and vitamin C. 9. Cantaloupe Cantaloupes owe their orange color to high vitamin A content. A cup of this delicious melon contains less than 13 g of sugar. This may be a bit more than other fruits have, but it’s still much less than you’d find in a 12-ounce can of soda, which has nearly 40 g of sugar and very little nutritional value. 10. Oranges Oranges are another great sweet snack you can enjoy without consuming many calories or much sugar. They’re also a good way to boost your vitamin C intake. A typical navel orange has nearly 14 grams of sugar and about 77 calories. 11. Peaches Peaches can be incredibly sweet, but with less than 13 g of sugar in a medium peach, they can still be considered low in sugar.

When the afternoon slump hits, it can be tempting to reach for the candy jar or swing by the vending machine. But while that sugar rush may feel satisfying at first, it quickly fades away, sending you back for more unhealthy snacks. A study published in the June 2020 issue of Current Developments in Nutrition found that people who experience bigger dips in blood sugar report greater hunger and tend to eat more calories overall than people with smaller dips in blood sugar. Over time, all those extra calories can easily add up to weight gain. Smart snack options, on the other hand, can have positive effects: “Snacking helps to ensure blood sugar doesn’t drop too low, so you don’t feel dizzy, weak, irritable, and hungry,” says Los Angeles–based registered dietitian Mascha Davis, MPH, founder of Mini Fish and author of Eat Your Vitamins. In addition, incorporating regular mini-meals or snacks into your routine can contribute helpful nutrients to your diet, prevent overeating, and help you maintain a healthy weight, according to a review published in September 2016 in Advances in Nutrition. When choosing a waistline-friendly snack, look for low-calorie options with nutritional benefits. Even if you’re happy with your weight, limiting calories may improve “bad” (LDL) cholesterol, blood pressure, and insulin sensitivity, per a study published in July 2019 in The Lancet.
