Hi. Zhang,


Pure Aloe Vera without any additives can be consumed. And if it has to be sweetened, then fructose should be used instead of sucrose. This is because Fructose, does not affect insulin but sucrose does. Many people with diabetes are able to use juices sweetened with fructose without difficulty. However, we would always recommend that you consult your Doctor first. Diabetes is a serious medical condition which can be affected by diet, and which varies from one person to the next and can worsen with age. It is therefore very important toconsider dietary changes carefully.
