How to consume Apples, Peanut Butter (Reduced Sodium) without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Incorporate a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or tofu, to your meal. Protein can help stabilize blood sugar levels after consuming fruits and peanut butter.

Include High-Fiber Foods

Add high-fiber foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your peanut butter or apple snack. Fiber slows down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're adding bread or crackers to your peanut butter and apple snack, choose whole grain options like whole grain bread or brown rice crackers.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables

Consider having a small salad or raw vegetable sticks like carrots or cucumber alongside your snack. These veggies can help moderate the blood sugar response.

Watch Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of apple and peanut butter you consume. Keeping portion sizes moderate can help minimize spikes in blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water or herbal tea with your snack. Proper hydration supports overall metabolic function and can help manage blood sugar levels.

Spread Out Your Meals

Instead of eating a large amount of apples and peanut butter at once, consider spreading your intake across a couple of smaller meals or snacks throughout the day.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate foods like avocados or a handful of nuts with your meal. Healthy fats can help slow the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in a short walk or any form of light exercise after consuming your snack. Physical activity can help lower blood sugar levels more quickly.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of how your body responds to this snack combination and adjust the quantities or pairings based on your individual needs and responses.
