Thanks for asking this question. Many people with diabetes do have this query about watermelon. Although watermelon has a high glycemic index, it's glycemic load is not high. That means, it doesn't really lead to high rise in blood sugar after consumption. Making it suitable for people with diabetes to consume. Having said that, it should be still eaten in moderation. 2 large medium size slices are considered to 1 serving of fruit. Also, one needs to avoid it eating with meals and consume it as a mid meal snack.
