Peanuts (100 G) and Apples (1 Medium (2 3/4 Inches Dia) (Approx 3 Per Lb))

Reduce the apple portion (for example, have half an apple) and eat it slowly rather than on an empty stomach.

Choose a whole, firm apple with the peel intact; avoid apple juice, applesauce, and dried apple products, which can raise glucose more quickly.

Pair the apple with a measured small serving of unsweetened Greek yogurt, chia seeds, or a few peanuts to slow absorption; avoid sweetened yogurt.

Keep peanut portions modest (about a small handful) and choose unsweetened, uncoated peanuts or natural peanut butter without added sugar.

Eat apples and peanuts as part of a balanced meal containing protein, non-starchy vegetables, and healthy fats instead of as a standalone snack.

Track the timing and size of the rise and any later drop for several days; if you have symptoms such as shakiness, sweating, confusion, or repeated low readings, discuss them with a clinician.
