How to consume Apples, Banana without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Consume apples and bananas with a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like almond butter or a few slices of avocado when eating these fruits to slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or oats in your meal or snack to help mitigate the spike in blood sugar.

Moderate Portion Sizes

Pay attention to portion sizes; consider eating half a banana or a smaller apple to naturally reduce the sugar load.

Opt for Whole Fruits

Always eat whole apples and bananas instead of processed or juiced versions to take advantage of the natural fiber that aids in slowing sugar absorption.

Consume with Leafy Greens

Pair these fruits with a side of leafy greens, such as spinach or kale, which can help in balancing blood sugar levels.

Drink Water

Drink a glass of water before or with your fruit to promote better digestion and slow the sugar absorption process.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after consuming these fruits to help your body use sugar more effectively.

Consider Timing

Eat fruits like apples and bananas earlier in the day when your body can utilize the energy more efficiently, reducing the chance of a late spike.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how your body responds, and adjust your fruit intake and accompanying foods accordingly.
