Diabetic patients should avoid Mosambi juice or any fruit juice for that matter. It can increase blood sugar by almost 200mg/dl.
The best way to increase Vitamin C is lemon juice.
Next Steps
Avoid juices
Maintain your daily intake of fresh fruit serving
Health Tips
Fresh lemon and Amla are good source of Vitamin C..

Diabetics should ideally not have fruit juices and have the whole fruit instead. This is because the fibres in whole fruits prevent the sugar from increasing.
U can give any OTC vitamin c tablet along with zinc for increasing immunity
