How to consume Apple, Watermelon without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Consume apples and watermelon with a protein source like nuts, cheese, or Greek yogurt to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Healthy Fats Addition

Add a small portion of healthy fats such as avocado or a handful of almonds when eating these fruits to stabilize blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of apples and watermelon. Instead of a whole apple, try half, or just a few pieces of watermelon to minimize the glucose spike.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds in your meal. You can sprinkle them on yogurt or smoothies that accompany your fruit intake.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before consuming these fruits. Proper hydration can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Meal Timing

Consume apples and watermelon as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach. This can help mitigate the spike effect.

Choose Less Ripe Fruits

Opt for less ripe apples and watermelon, as they generally contain lower sugar content compared to fully ripe ones.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and chew your fruits thoroughly, which can help your body process the sugars more gradually.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming these fruits to help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Substitute with Berries

Occasionally replace apples and watermelon with berries like strawberries or blackberries, which generally have a milder impact on blood sugar levels.
