How to consume almond milk, banana without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a protein source like a handful of almonds or a boiled egg alongside your almond milk and banana to help slow the absorption of sugar into your bloodstream.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate a small serving of healthy fats such as a tablespoon of chia seeds or a sprinkle of flaxseeds into your meal. This can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Monitor Portion Size

Keep an eye on the portion of banana you consume. Consider eating only half if you’re experiencing significant spikes.

Choose Less Ripe Bananas

Opt for bananas that are slightly green, as they typically have less sugar content compared to fully ripe bananas.

Incorporate Whole Grains

Add a small serving of whole grains like rolled oats to your almond milk and banana to enhance fiber content, which can help reduce spikes.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can support overall blood sugar management.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon into your almond milk for its potential benefits in helping regulate blood sugar levels.

Stay Active

Engage in a brief walk or light exercise after consuming your meal to help your muscles use up some of the sugar.

Space Out Your Meals

Rather than consuming almond milk and banana together, space them out, allowing your body to process the sugar more efficiently.

Check Labels

Ensure your almond milk is unsweetened, as added sugars can contribute to glucose spikes.
