If for some reason you have to calculate the amount of sugar in your daily menu, you should not forget the fruit. Fructose (fruit sugar) belongs to the fast sugars, which means that it is broken down quickly by the body and is useful, but it should not be overdone. Among the record holders in terms of fructose is avocado, which contains 1 kg of sugars, as well as many useful fats and can saturate the body. They are at the other pole fruits with the least sugar content. Here are some of them.
Blueberries
One cup of this fruit contains only 4 g of sugar and therefore blueberries can be consumed all year round.
Raspberries
Raspberries contain only 5 g of sugar per 1 cup of fruit. They have more fiber than other berries, so they saturate more. You can safely use them in the smoothie, in the fruit shake, as well as as part of the fruit salad.
