How to consume Apple, 1 medium without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein like a handful of almonds or a small piece of cheese to your snack to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of healthy fats, such as a few slices of avocado or a spoonful of peanut butter, which can slow down the absorption of sugar.

Eat with Fiber

Combine your apple with foods high in fiber, such as a small bowl of oatmeal or a serving of chia pudding, to help moderate blood sugar increases.

Exercise After Eating

Engage in a light physical activity like a 15-minute walk after eating the apple to help your body use up the glucose more efficiently.

Hydrate Well

Drinking a glass of water with or before eating the apple can aid in digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.

Choose a Green Apple

Opt for a green apple, which generally has less sugar than other varieties and can cause a smaller spike in blood glucose.

Mind Portion Control

Consume only half of the apple if you're sensitive to sugar spikes, and save the rest for later.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your apple slices, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Timing Matters

Consider eating your apple as part of a larger meal rather than on its own, as the other foods can help balance the overall impact on blood sugar.
