What not to eat at night with high blood sugar

In general, individuals with high blood sugar should avoid consuming fruits such as watermelon, cantaloupe, jackfruit, honey, and rock sugar at night. They should also avoid medications including enteric-coated aspirin tablets, acetaminophen tablets, cortisone acetate tablets, prednisolone tablets, and levonorgestrel tablets. The specific analysis is as follows:

1. Foods

1. Watermelon: Watermelon is a fruit with high water content and a sweet taste, primarily composed of water and sugar. Although it is considered a low-calorie fruit, it contains relatively high levels of sugar, especially glucose and fructose. Therefore, excessive consumption of watermelon at night may lead to elevated blood glucose levels in individuals with high blood sugar.

2. Cantaloupe: Cantaloupe is a deliciously sweet summer fruit that also has a relatively high sugar content. Even though its sugar level is moderate compared to other fruits, consuming too much at night may negatively affect blood glucose control.

3. Jackfruit: Jackfruit is a flavorful and sweet tropical fruit containing significant amounts of sugar and calories. Particularly the tasty pulp, which many people enjoy, contains considerable sugar. For individuals with high blood sugar, eating too much jackfruit at night may cause blood glucose levels to rise.

4. Honey: Honey is rich in fructose and glucose—simple sugars that are rapidly absorbed and can easily raise blood glucose levels. Therefore, women with high blood sugar should avoid consuming honey during dinner.

5. Rock Sugar: Rock sugar has a high sugar content. If women with high blood sugar consume this during dinner, it may lead to an increase in blood glucose levels.

2. Medications

1. Enteric-Coated Aspirin Tablets: These are nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) with antipyretic and analgesic effects. They are primarily used to prevent transient ischemic attacks, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, thrombosis after procedures such as artificial heart valve implantation or arteriovenous fistula surgery. They can also be used to treat unstable angina pectoris.

2. Acetaminophen Tablets: These are NSAIDs used for antipyresis and pain relief. They are commonly used to treat fever caused by the common cold or influenza, and can also relieve mild to moderate pain such as headaches, joint pain, migraines, toothaches, muscle pain, neuralgia, and dysmenorrhea.

3. Cortisone Acetate Tablets: This is a corticosteroid medication primarily used to treat primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency.

4. Prednisolone Tablets: Prednisolone can antagonize insulin and cause elevated blood glucose levels. Taking this medication at night may worsen the condition in patients with high blood sugar.

5. Levonorgestrel Tablets: This is an oral contraceptive. In patients with high blood sugar who are already taking antidiabetic medications, using levonorgestrel may reduce the effectiveness of their diabetes medication, thereby impairing blood glucose control.

Patients with high blood sugar can stabilize their blood glucose levels through dietary management, regular physical exercise, and other lifestyle interventions.
