                                A common myth suggests that fruit sugar is universally bad for blood sugar control, but fresh oranges, with their low glycemic index, are a prime example of why this is incorrect for whole fruits. The natural fiber content in a whole orange plays a crucial role in managing blood glucose levels, rather than causing a rapid spike.
