How to consume Apples without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume apples along with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of nuts, a slice of cheese, or a dollop of nut butter. This combination can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Add foods that are high in fiber, like chia seeds or flaxseeds, to your meal or snack. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Choose Smaller Portions

Opt for a smaller apple or half an apple to reduce the sugar content in one sitting while still enjoying the fruit.

Eat Apples with a Balanced Meal

Include apples as part of a balanced meal that includes lean proteins and whole grains to reduce the spike in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before eating to help slow down digestion and improve your body’s response to sugar intake.

Opt for Raw or Whole Apples

Eat apples in their raw or whole form rather than in processed forms like juice or applesauce to retain the natural fiber content.

Add a Small Amount of Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on your apple, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Monitor Timing of Consumption

Consume apples when you are more physically active, such as before or after exercise, when your body is better able to manage blood sugar.

Experiment with Different Varieties

Some apple varieties may affect your blood sugar differently, so try different types to see which ones work best for you.

Regular Monitoring

Keep a diary of your blood sugar response to eating apples and adjust your intake and combinations based on your observations.
