How to consume Papayas without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Include a source of protein like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts to help slow down the absorption of sugar.
Add Healthy Fats
Combine papayas with healthy fats such as avocado slices or a small serving of chia seeds to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Consume smaller portions of papaya to minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.
Include Fiber-Rich Foods
Add foods high in fiber like oats, barley, or lentils to your meal to help regulate the release of sugar into the bloodstream.
Eat with Non-Starchy Vegetables
Accompany your papaya with non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or bell peppers to balance out your meal.
Choose Timing Wisely
Consume papayas as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to reduce the spike.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day, as dehydration can exacerbate blood sugar spikes.
Monitor Overall Carb Intake
Keep track of your total carbohydrate intake from all sources to prevent excessive blood sugar fluctuations.
Practice Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and savor each bite to allow your body to process the sugars more efficiently.
Physical Activity
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk after eating, to help your body utilize the glucose effectively.
