How to consume Apples, Orange without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume apples and oranges with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as nuts, cheese, or a small serving of yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Choose Whole Fruits

Always opt for whole apples and oranges instead of fruit juices or dried fruits, as the latter can cause a quicker rise in blood sugar levels.

Moderate Portions

Consume smaller portions of apples and oranges to minimize the impact on your blood sugar while still enjoying their nutritional benefits.

Add Fiber

Increase your intake of fiber by pairing fruits with fiber-rich foods like oats, chia seeds, or whole-grain crackers, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day, especially when consuming fruits, to help your body manage blood sugar more effectively.

Balanced Meals

Incorporate apples and oranges into larger, balanced meals rather than eating them alone, to reduce the potential for spikes in blood sugar.

Monitor Timing

Pay attention to when you consume these fruits. Eating them earlier in the day or after physical activity might reduce the impact on blood sugar.

Incorporate Low-Sugar Fruits

Complement apples and oranges with low-sugar fruits like berries, which can help reduce overall sugar intake while providing essential nutrients.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the sugars in the fruits, which can help prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood glucose levels to better understand how apples and oranges affect you individually and adjust your consumption accordingly.
