Rishikesh. Diabetes is a serious lifestyle disease, in which it is very important to control blood sugar. Diabetic patients have to take special care of their diet, especially they have to stay away from sweet things. Natural sugar is found in most fruits, which can be harmful for diabetic patients. For this reason, many times patients consult a doctor before eating fruits, but Ramphal, a special fruit available in winter, is very beneficial for diabetic patients. Despite being sweet in taste, Ramphal helps in controlling blood sugar. This fruit is not only beneficial for health but also keeps the body warm in winter.
Speaking to Local 18, Dr. Rajkumar (D.U.M.) of Kayakalp Herbal Clinic located in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, said that many nutrients are found in Ramphal, such as fiber, vitamin C, potassium and vitamin A. The fiber present in them strengthens the digestive system and provides relief from problems like constipation. Whereas potassium is considered beneficial for heart health. Apart from this, Vitamin C helps in increasing immunity and Vitamin A is good for eye health. Another benefit of Ramphal for diabetic patients is that it has low glycemic index. This means that this fruit does not increase blood sugar rapidly, which makes it easier to control the sugar level. Consumption of Ramphal is beneficial not only for diabetes but also for other diseases like high blood pressure and digestive problems.
Ramphal is easily available in winter
Ramphal is easily available in winter. It can be consumed raw or used in smoothies and desserts. However, it is important to keep the quantity in mind while consuming it. It is better to eat any fruit in limited quantities. Therefore, if you are a diabetic patient and want to eat a healthy and tasty fruit in winter, then Ramphal can be a great option. By including it in your diet, you can provide many benefits to your body.
