Can people with diabetes eat royal jelly?

Patient's question:

My aunt has never been in very good health. Recently, I heard that she has been diagnosed with diabetes again. I had already bought her some royal jelly because my friend told me that royal jelly can stabilize a person's constitution and boost immunity. I would like to ask, can people with diabetes consume royal jelly?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with diabetes are not recommended to consume royal jelly because it is naturally sweet. Therefore, it is not advisable to eat it. Patients with diabetes should pay close attention to a light diet, low in salt and sugar. For your sister's current condition, it is recommended to visit the internal medicine department of a local hospital as soon as possible for a thorough examination. Then, symptomatic treatment can be carried out. It is essential to adhere to medication and undergo regular follow-up checks.
