How to consume Baby Carrots without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Eat baby carrots alongside a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts, a piece of cheese, or a hard-boiled egg, to help slow down the digestion and absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, or a few olives to your meal or snack to help moderate the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Combine baby carrots with fiber-rich foods such as leafy greens, chia seeds, or a small serving of whole grains like quinoa to aid in minimizing the glucose spike.

Portion Control

Instead of consuming a large quantity of baby carrots at once, enjoy them in smaller portions spread throughout the day to help keep glucose levels stable.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after consuming baby carrots to help with digestion and metabolism, as proper hydration can support stable glucose levels.

Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice

Consuming a small amount of vinegar or squeezing lemon juice over your meal can help moderate blood sugar responses.

Combine with Legumes

Pair baby carrots with a small serving of lentils or beans, which are high in fiber and protein, to help prevent sharp spikes in glucose.

Chew Thoroughly

Take time to chew baby carrots well, as this aids in digestion and can help in slowing the glucose absorption process.

Opt for Raw Instead of Cooked

If you typically consume baby carrots cooked, try eating them raw as cooking can sometimes increase their sugar availability.

Monitor Total Carbohydrate Intake

Keep track of the total carbohydrates in your meal to ensure that the overall impact on blood glucose remains balanced.
