How to consume Apple and nuts without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of lean protein, such as Greek yogurt or a small portion of cottage cheese, to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates from the apple and nuts.

Add Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Consider incorporating a small side of raw or lightly steamed non-starchy vegetables, such as broccoli, cucumbers, or bell peppers. These can help slow the digestion process.

Choose Low-Carb Nuts

Opt for nuts that are lower in carbohydrates, like almonds or walnuts, and keep the serving size moderate to avoid excessive carbohydrate intake.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of avocado or a drizzle of olive oil to your meal to provide healthy fats that can help slow the rise in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before or during your meal to help with digestion and to potentially slow the rise in glucose levels.

Mind the Portion Size

Consider eating a smaller portion of apple and nuts, and combine it with other low-carbohydrate foods to maintain balance.

Include a Whole Grain

If you’re looking to expand the meal, include a small portion of a whole grain like quinoa or oats, which can be digested more slowly.

Space Out Eating Times

Instead of consuming the apple and nuts together, try eating them at different times of the day to lessen the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your apple slices, as it may help with blood sugar regulation and add flavor without additional sugar.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your body's response to these combinations and make adjustments as needed based on how your glucose levels react.
