Avocados (1 Avocado, Ns As To Florida Or California)

Check what you eat with the avocado—bread, chips, sweet sauces, fruit juice, and large portions of rice can be the main driver rather than the avocado itself.

Reduce the avocado portion for several meals and compare your glucose response; try a quarter to half an avocado instead of a whole one.

Pair avocado with protein and non-starchy vegetables, such as eggs, chicken, tofu, leafy greens, cucumber, broccoli, or peppers.

Choose lower-carbohydrate bases for avocado meals, such as a salad, lettuce wraps, or cauliflower rice, rather than toast or tortilla chips.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal, if this is safe for you and consistent with your clinician’s guidance.

Repeat the meal under similar conditions and review medication timing, sleep, stress, and measurement timing; discuss repeated unexpected spikes with your healthcare professional.
