Raisins (Kishmish, dried)
किशमिश · ఎండు ద్రాక్ష
Dried grapes that are concentrated in natural sugars, giving them a high glycemic load despite a moderate GI. Best eaten in small amounts.
Nutrition per Serving
Sugars shown are total sugars (naturally occurring + added) per serving and are approximate. For fruits and dairy this is mostly natural sugar; for sweets and many cooked dishes it reflects added sugar or jaggery.
Tips to Manage Blood Sugar
Diabetics should strictly limit portions; soak overnight and eat with nuts to blunt the sugar spike.
