How to consume Banana Bread without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of banana bread you consume in one sitting to help minimize the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Protein Pairing

Eat a source of protein alongside the banana bread, such as a handful of almonds, Greek yogurt, or a boiled egg. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Healthy Fats

Include a small serving of foods rich in healthy fats, like avocado, nuts, or seeds, with your snack. These fats can help stabilize your blood sugar.

Fiber Boost

Eat high-fiber foods before or with your banana bread, such as a small salad, a few slices of cucumber, or a piece of whole-grain toast. Fiber helps slow down digestion and the release of sugars.

Cinnamon Addition

Sprinkle some cinnamon on your banana bread. Cinnamon is known for its potential to improve insulin sensitivity and help control blood sugar.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day and have a glass before eating. Adequate hydration is essential for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Go for a short walk or engage in light exercise after eating banana bread to help your body use glucose more effectively.

Monitor Timing

Try consuming banana bread earlier in the day when your body is more active and better able to manage blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and pay attention to your body's hunger and fullness cues to prevent overeating.
