A 50-year-old woman with diabetes can generally eat apples, but portion control and monitoring blood sugar levels are important. Apples contain natural sugars and fiber, which can be beneficial if consumed in moderation. It's best to choose whole apples rather than apple juice or processed apple products, as whole fruits have more fiber and a lower glycemic impact.
Key points to consider:
- Portion size: Eating one small to medium apple per day is usually safe.
- Blood sugar monitoring: Keep track of how apples affect your blood glucose.
- Balanced diet: Include apples as part of a varied diet rich in vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
- Consult your doctor or dietitian: Personalized advice is important, especially if you have other health conditions or take medications.
In summary, apples can be a healthy snack choice for someone with diabetes when eaten mindfully and as part of an overall balanced diet.

My wife is 30 and has a thyroid issue that's preventing her from getting surgery. The doctor said her levels need to be normal first. What medicine and dosage would help bring her thyroid levels back to normal so she can proceed with the surgery?
Thyroid meds like levothyroxine are adjusted based on TSH; dose must be set by your endocrinologist.
