How to consume Apples, Peanut Butter without glucose spikes

Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds. These can be mixed into peanut butter or sprinkled over apple slices to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein like Greek yogurt or cottage cheese. This can help slow down the digestion and absorption process, mitigating the glucose spike.

Opt for Whole-Grain Alternatives

If you're having peanut butter with bread, choose whole-grain or sprouted grain bread options, which have complex carbohydrates that are digested more slowly.

Consume with Healthy Fats

Consider adding a few almonds or walnuts to your snack. The healthy fats in nuts can help moderate blood sugar swings.

Monitor Portion Size

Keep an eye on the quantity of apples and peanut butter you consume. Reducing portion sizes can have a significant impact on the body's glycemic response.

Stay Hydrated

Drink a glass of water before eating. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Include Cinnamon

Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your apples or mix it into peanut butter. Cinnamon is known to enhance insulin sensitivity and may help in reducing blood sugar spikes.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Consider going for a short walk or doing light exercises after eating. Physical activity can help your muscles use up some of the excess glucose in your bloodstream.
