How to consume Apples, Guava without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or a handful of nuts when eating apples or guava. This can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates and reduce spikes.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats such as avocado slices, a small amount of nut butter, or a sprinkle of chia seeds with your fruit. This can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Enjoy with Fibrous Foods
Combine apples or guava with high-fiber foods like oatmeal, whole grain bread, or a salad. Fiber can aid in moderating blood sugar increases.
Control Portions
Eat smaller servings of apples and guava. Consider having half an apple or a smaller portion of guava to reduce the overall impact.
Precede with Veggies
Start your meal with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars from fruits.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially before consuming fruits. Proper hydration can aid in maintaining stable glucose levels.
Timing Matters
Consider eating fruit earlier in the day when your body might better handle glucose spikes. Alternatively, have it as part of a balanced meal rather than on its own.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in regular physical activity, such as a short walk after meals, to help your body use glucose more efficiently and reduce spikes.
