How to consume Apple Pie without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of apple pie you consume. Smaller servings can help minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Consume the apple pie alongside a source of protein such as Greek yogurt, cheese, or a handful of nuts. Protein can slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Add Fiber

Pair the pie with a fiber-rich food like an apple with the skin, or a small salad. Fiber can help stabilize blood sugar by slowing down sugar absorption.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats in your meal by adding a small amount of avocado, olive oil, or nuts. Fats can help slow the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after eating the pie to help with digestion and reduce blood sugar spikes.

Choose Whole Grains

If baking your own pie, use whole grain flour instead of refined flour for the crust to increase fiber content.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle cinnamon on the pie. Cinnamon has been shown to help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat the pie slowly, savoring each bite. Eating slowly can help prevent overeating and allow your body to properly digest the food.

Monitor Timing

Try to have the apple pie as part of a main meal rather than as a standalone snack. This can help moderate blood sugar levels as part of a balanced meal.

Regular Physical Activity

After eating the pie, engage in light physical activity such as a walk. Exercise helps your body use sugar more efficiently and can prevent a spike.
