Summary
A study led by the University of Granada and published in 'Clinical Nutrition' found that eating fruit at dinner is associated with better nighttime glucose control in obese adults. The research challenges alarmist narratives about fruit consumption at night, noting that fiber and bioactive compounds in fruit promote better glycemic response. The study warns that avoiding fruit due to unfounded fear may be counterproductive, especially in populations at high risk of type 2 diabetes.
