How to consume 3 dates without glucose spikes

Engage in Physical Activity

Take a brisk 15-20 minute walk after eating to help your muscles use up excess glucose.

Hydrate Well

Drink a glass of water with your meal to aid digestion and help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.

Incorporate Fiber

Eat a small portion of nuts, like almonds or walnuts, alongside your dates to slow down sugar absorption.

Add Protein

Pair your dates with a protein source, such as Greek yogurt or a small piece of cheese, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Eat Vegetables

Include a serving of non-starchy vegetables, like carrots or cucumber, to your meal to add bulk and slow glucose absorption.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're having a meal, choose whole grain options like brown rice or whole grain bread to moderate blood sugar levels.

Practice Portion Control

Limit your intake by eating just one or two dates instead of three, and spread them out over a longer period.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of how your body responds to eating dates by checking your blood sugar levels, if possible, and adjust your intake accordingly.

Choose Acidic Additions

Add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar to your meal, which can help slow down the rate at which sugars are absorbed.

Plan Regular Meals

Maintain consistent meal times throughout the day to help manage overall blood sugar levels, preventing spikes and crashes.
