How to consume Banana, Peanut Butter without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consider adding a source of protein or healthy fats to your meal, like a handful of nuts or seeds. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars into your bloodstream.

Choose Whole Grain Options

If you're having banana and peanut butter on toast, opt for whole grain or multigrain bread which digests more slowly.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Incorporate foods high in fiber, such as chia seeds or flaxseeds, into your meal. Sprinkling these on your banana and peanut butter can help moderate glucose levels.

Use Portion Control

Limit the amount of banana you consume in one sitting. Eating smaller portions can help control spikes.

Eat Mindfully

Slow down your eating pace, savor each bite, and chew thoroughly to help your body manage glucose levels effectively.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout the day to aid metabolic processes and help the body in regulating glucose.

Incorporate Physical Activity

A short walk or light exercise post-meal can help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Add a Citrus Fruit

Include a small serving of berries or an orange slice; these fruits have compounds that may help with blood sugar regulation.

Monitor Your Intake

Keep track of how much and how often you're consuming bananas and peanut butter, adjusting based on how your body responds.

Consider Timing

Avoid consuming high-carb meals right before bed, as your body is less active and less able to manage blood sugar levels effectively at night.
