it seems to me that you are confusing natural sugar with processed sugar. there's nothing wrong/bad with eating fruit. i've been a diabetic for 26 years and eat bananas, apples, strawberries, blueberries, melons all day every day, no joke. and i don't have to shoot insulin when i do, like i have to when i consume starchy sugars or a product with added refined sugar.
warchild's comment is accurate. also, there's several different types of natural sugars, fructose, galactose, maltose, glucose, etc.
each of those have unique glycemic ratings. so a banana will have a slightly higher glycemic value than an apple. difference being the amount of fiber and the type of naturally occurring sugar.
it's all pretty easy though: foods with hfcs and/or processed sugar are bad. whole foods with naturally occurring sugars are good.
