How to consume Carrots, Cucumber (Peeled) without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats
Add a source of protein or healthy fats, such as hummus, nuts, or cheese, to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilize blood sugar levels.
Moderate Portion Size
Keep your portion sizes of carrots and cucumbers moderate to prevent a larger spike in glucose levels.
Choose Raw or Lightly Cooked
Consume these vegetables raw or lightly cooked, as this maintains their fiber content, which can help manage blood sugar spikes.
