Before you freak out about the sugar in fruit, Katrin Lee, MS, RD, founder of Simply Nutrition NYC, recommends looking at the rest of the nutrition facts to get a better idea of how your body will respond.

“Any fruits that have other major nutrients, like protein, fiber, or good fats will cause your blood sugar to spike slower because you’re also working to digest the other nutrients,” Lee explains. While your body reacts to sugar the same, whether it comes from a packet or a pineapple, eating the nutrient-dense food is always the better option.

Plus, “most fruit is actually considered low on the glycemic index, meaning it doesn’t raise your blood sugar as much as other carbohydrates,” adds Rebekah Blakely, RDN, registered nutritionist for The Vitamin Shoppe.

To help guide your grocery shopping endeavors, here are some low-sugar fruits dietitians love that are nutrient-rich and full of benefits (besides their incredible taste, of course).

Below are 8 low-sugar fruits to serve up for snack time, dessert time, or any time

1. STRAWBERRIES

Sugar: 8 grams per cup

We’re berry, er very, pleased to inform you that you can whip up a dairy-free milkshake with said cup of strawberries. They’re also rich in vitamin C and potassium, which are good for your skin, immune system, and bones. Eating those berries straight will get you five grams of fiber, too.

2. RASPBERRIES

Sugar: 5 grams per cup

Raspberries pair their low sugar content with a relatively high load of fiber: eight grams of fiber per cup. Sounds like a win for your taste buds and your digestive system to me.

3. PEACHES

Sugar: 13 grams per cup (sliced)

Everyone (not just the cast of Call Me By Your Name) deserves a summer fling with peaches. So bite through the skin of this fuzzy fruit and earn a bonus of two grams of fiber, along with vitamins A and C and calcium.

4. BLACKBERRIES

Sugar: 7 grams per cup

Blackberries pack almost eight grams of fiber per cup, so add them to your morning parfait for a digestively perfect breakfast.

5. LEMON AND LIME

Sugar: 1 gram per lemon (juice only) and 0.7 grams per lime (juice only)

Can’t say I’ve ever seen someone eat a lemon straight (unless they’re in a viral video), but the juice of lemons and limes are necessary components of many a mixed drink. Plus, you just can’t beat a salad dressing that includes fresh citrus.

6. AVOCADO

Sugar: 0.33 grams per 1/3 fruit serving

In case there was any question in your mind, the queen of all healthy fats also rules the fruit kingdom. It’s both super low in sugar and high in fiber (three grams in just a third of the fruit). Basically, it’s the healthy fat’s world and we’re all just living in it.

7. GRAPEFRUIT

Sugar: 8 grams per half-fruit serving

With about two grams of fiber per cup-size portion, this tart morning fave offers some of the major nutritional components you need to kickstart your day (and your digestion). So grab a spoon or make yourself some freshly-squeezed juice.

8. MULBERRIES

Sugar: 11 grams per cup

ICYMI, mulberries are the under-hyped fruit that’s a favorite of celebrity Kristen Bell. They’re also rich in antioxidants and apparently taste great tossed into sparkling water. Sold./.
