How to consume dutch green smoothie | mixed salad greens without glucose spikes

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado or nuts, to your smoothie or salad. This can slow down the absorption of sugars.

Add Protein

Incorporate a source of protein like Greek yogurt, a scoop of protein powder, or some chickpeas in your smoothie or salad to help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Limit Fruit Additions

If adding fruit to your smoothie, choose those with lower sugar content, such as berries, and keep the portions small.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Ingredients

Enhance your smoothie or salad with fiber-rich ingredients like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or quinoa to help slow sugar absorption.

Drink Water

Ensure you are staying hydrated by drinking water before and after your meal to help your body process the sugars more efficiently.

Control Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the quantity of smoothie or salad you consume. Smaller portions are less likely to cause significant spikes in blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Ingredients

Use whole, unprocessed ingredients in your smoothie or salad to better manage your blood sugar response.

Time Your Meals Right

Consider consuming your smoothie or salad alongside a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to avoid sharp spikes.

Add Lemon Juice or Vinegar

Including a splash of lemon juice or vinegar in your salad can help modulate blood sugar responses.

Chew Thoroughly

Chewing your food well can aid digestion and lead to a more gradual release of sugars into the bloodstream.
