How to consume Apples, Papayas without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fat

Add a source of protein or healthy fat to your meal with apples and papayas. Consider including a handful of nuts, a spoonful of nut butter, or a serving of Greek yogurt.

Incorporate Fiber-Rich Foods

Increase your dietary fiber intake by adding foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small portion of oats to your meal. These can help moderate the absorption of sugars.

Choose Smaller Portions

Reduce the portion size of apples and papayas to moderate the glucose response without needing to eliminate them entirely from your diet.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables such as leafy greens, cucumbers, or bell peppers in your meal to slow down digestion and balance your blood sugar levels.

Drink Water

Stay hydrated by drinking water before and during your meal, which can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar spikes.

Eat at a Slower Pace

Slow down your eating speed to give your body more time to process the sugars, helping to mitigate sharp spikes in glucose levels.

Consider Timing of Consumption

Try consuming apples and papayas as part of a meal rather than on their own as a snack, which can help avoid sudden spikes.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in regular physical activity, even a short walk after meals, to help your body regulate glucose levels more effectively.
