I am a diabetic who loves mangoes a lot. I want to know if I can still be eating mangoes in my condition.

Mango is high in sugar, which can increase blood sugar in people with diabetes. However, it also contains fiber and antioxidants that can help minimize its impact on blood sugar. With a GI of 51, it is considered a low GI food.
A 1/2 cup serving of sliced mango provides about 12.5 grams of carbs, so people with diabetes should start with this portion size and adjust as necessary to find what works best as for them.
