How to consume Banana, Oranges without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Eating a source of protein or healthy fats along with bananas and oranges can help slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream. Consider having a small handful of nuts like almonds or a piece of cheese with your fruit.

Portion Control

Monitor the portion size of bananas and oranges. Instead of consuming a whole banana, try eating half, and opt for a small orange instead of a large one.

Choose Less Ripe Fruit

The ripeness of a fruit can affect how it impacts your blood sugar levels. Opt for bananas and oranges that are less ripe, as they tend to have a lower impact.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Combine your fruit intake with high-fiber foods like chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oatmeal. This can help moderate the blood sugar response by slowing down digestion.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water with meals can help with digestion and may assist in moderating blood sugar levels.

Exercise Post-Meal

Engaging in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming fruit can help your body use up the sugar more effectively.

Try Fruit with Yogurt

Pairing bananas and oranges with plain Greek yogurt can add protein and probiotics, which may help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Eat Whole Fruits Instead of Juices

Whole fruits contain fiber, which can help regulate blood sugar levels better than fruit juices, which often lead to spikes.

Sprinkle Cinnamon

Adding a dash of cinnamon on your fruit can enhance flavor and may help with blood sugar control.

Mindful Eating

Practice mindful eating by savoring each bite of fruit, which can help you eat slower and potentially reduce the impact on your blood sugar levels.
