How to consume Apples, Watermelon without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

When consuming apples or watermelon, pair them with a source of protein or healthy fats such as a handful of almonds, a slice of cheese, or some Greek yogurt. This combination can help slow down sugar absorption.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion sizes of apples and watermelon. Instead of eating a whole apple or a large wedge of watermelon, consider consuming smaller servings to reduce the sugar load.

Combine with Low-GI Foods

Incorporate foods like lentils, chickpeas, or whole grains such as barley or quinoa into your meal. These can help moderate the glucose spike when consumed with fruits.

Eat with Fiber-Rich Vegetables

Include fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli in your meal. The fiber content can help slow down the digestion and absorption of sugars from fruits.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before and after eating fruits. Adequate hydration can assist in balancing blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming fruits. This can help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite of fruit slowly, which can help you recognize fullness earlier and prevent overconsumption.

Try Different Varieties

Opt for less ripe versions of apples or watermelon, as these may have a slightly lower sugar content compared to their fully ripe counterparts.

Timing of Consumption

Eat fruits as part of a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to help moderate the absorption of sugars.

Monitor Your Body’s Response

Pay attention to how your body reacts to different fruits and adjust your consumption accordingly. Keeping a food diary can help identify patterns and make necessary adjustments.
