How to consume Arabic coffee, Date without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein such as a handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Fiber

Add high-fiber foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your meals. Fiber can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Monitor Portion Sizes

Be mindful of the amount of dates you consume. Reducing portion size can significantly lessen a glucose spike.

Choose Whole Grains

If consuming with a meal, include whole grains like quinoa or brown rice, which release sugars more slowly.

Include Healthy Fats

Combine with healthy fats such as avocado or a small serving of olive oil-based dressing, which can help in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink water or herbal teas alongside your meal. Staying hydrated helps in maintaining optimal blood sugar levels.

Timing of Consumption

Have your Arabic coffee and dates as part of a balanced meal rather than alone. This can help in mitigating spikes.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity post-meal, like a short walk, to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Consider Alternative Sweeteners

If preparing Arabic coffee, consider using a natural sweetener that has less impact on blood sugar.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully to enhance digestion and help your body process the sugars more effectively.
