Someone may say

Isn't there a lot of sugar -free moon cakes on the market now?

I'm not afraid of high blood sugar if I eat that

This can only ...

Although some moon cakes are called sugar -free, they do not add additional sucrose. The main raw materials of moon cake cakes are flour. Natural fillings such as bean paste and preserved fruits will bring their own sugar, which can be converted into glucose, which leads to rising blood sugar. And these moon cakes are added a lot of oil ... so it is still high -fat and high -calorie food.

Healthy people cannot eat more. Diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obese people must pay more attention.
