How to consume Baby Carrots, Hummus without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, turkey slices, or even a boiled egg. Protein can help slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Incorporate Healthy Fats
Include a handful of almonds or walnuts. Healthy fats can help moderate the glucose response by slowing carbohydrate absorption.
Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add in some leafy greens like spinach or kale, or other non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber or bell peppers. Fiber helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Use Whole Grain Crackers
Instead of just hummus and carrots, include a small portion of whole grain crackers to balance the snack and provide additional fiber.
Drink Water or Herbal Tea
Stay hydrated by sipping water or herbal tea with your snack. Avoid sugary drinks which can enhance a glucose spike.
Eat Smaller Portions
Reduce the portion size of the baby carrots and hummus. Smaller portions can help minimize the glucose response.
Add Avocado
Include slices of avocado. Its fat content can help slow the digestion process, reducing spikes in glucose levels.
Time Your Snack
Consider eating your snack after a meal instead of on an empty stomach. The presence of other foods can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.
Chew Slowly and Thoroughly
Take the time to chew your food properly, aiding better digestion and a more gradual glucose release.
Monitor Reaction
Keep track of how your body reacts to the snack and make adjustments as needed. Individual responses can vary, so personal monitoring is important.
