How to consume Cucumber (Peeled), Carrots without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or a boiled egg to your meal. This helps slow down digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds. These can help delay the absorption of carbohydrates, preventing spikes.

Eat with Whole Grains

Combine your meal with whole grains like quinoa or barley which are digested more slowly.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-dense foods such as leafy greens or legumes which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Control Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of cucumbers and carrots you consume, balancing them with other components of your meal.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and with your meal to aid in digestion and help avoid rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Consider a post-meal walk. Physical activity can help your body use glucose more effectively.

Monitor Cooking Methods

Eat cucumbers and carrots raw or lightly steamed to preserve their natural fibers and slow the absorption of sugars.
