Does banana and honey raise blood sugar?

Patient's question:

Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. I would like to ask if bananas and honey will raise blood sugar levels?

Doctor's answer:

Bananas and honey are high-sugar foods, which can cause blood sugar to rise to some extent. Since diabetes has been diagnosed, it is important to receive timely and standardized treatment to prevent the condition from worsening. Daily monitoring of blood sugar levels is necessary, and diabetes medications should be taken on time and in the prescribed dosage. In terms of diet, it is important to limit high-fat, high-sugar, and high-starch foods, either by reducing or avoiding them. Additionally, appropriate exercise should be implemented to stabilize insulin sensitivity.
