How to consume Sweet Cherries without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit your serving size of sweet cherries to help manage the spike. Consuming smaller portions can lead to a more gradual release of sugar into the bloodstream.

Pair with Protein

Combine sweet cherries with a source of protein, such as a handful of almonds or a piece of cheese. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of nuts or seeds with your cherries. These fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Fiber

Eat cherries alongside high-fiber foods such as oats, lentils, or a small salad with leafy greens. Fiber can help slow the digestion and absorption of sugars.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after consuming sweet cherries. Proper hydration can aid in maintaining balanced blood sugar levels.

Exercise

Engage in light physical activity like walking for 10-15 minutes after consuming cherries. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels by increasing insulin sensitivity.

Consume with Vinegar

Have a tablespoon of vinegar with water before your meal. Vinegar can improve insulin sensitivity and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Fruits

If possible, choose whole cherries over cherry products like juices or dried cherries, which can have added sugars and less fiber.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your cherries. Being mindful can help you recognize when you're full and reduce the likelihood of overeating.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to see how sweet cherries affect you personally and adjust your strategies accordingly.
