How to consume Almonds, Apples without glucose spikes

Combine with Protein or Healthy Fats

Pair almonds and apples with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as Greek yogurt, a piece of cheese, or a small serving of hummus. This can help slow the absorption of sugars and reduce glucose spikes.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of almonds and apples you consume. Eating smaller amounts can help manage your blood sugar response.

Opt for Whole Foods

Ensure you are consuming whole, raw almonds and whole apples rather than processed forms, as processing can increase the sugar absorption rate.

Precede with Fiber

Start your meal with high-fiber foods like a small salad or a portion of vegetables such as broccoli or spinach. This can help slow the digestive process and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and during your meal. Staying hydrated can aid digestion and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the food and signal when you are full, which can help prevent overeating.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming almonds and apples. Exercise can help lower blood sugar levels by facilitating glucose uptake in the muscles.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating almonds and apples to understand your body's response and make adjustments as necessary.

Add Spices

Consider adding cinnamon to your apples, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce glucose spikes.

Balance Your Meal

Include other low-sugar fruits and nuts like berries or walnuts in your diet, which can provide additional nutrients without significantly impacting blood sugar levels.
