How to consume Banana | Protein Shake without glucose spikes
Add Fiber
Incorporate a fiber supplement or blend in some spinach or kale to your shake. This helps slow down the absorption of sugar into the bloodstream.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a tablespoon of almond butter or chia seeds to your shake. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Balance with Protein
Ensure your protein shake has adequate protein content. Consider adding Greek yogurt or a scoop of protein powder to increase the protein proportion.
Choose a Different Base
Use unsweetened almond milk or oat milk instead of regular milk to reduce sugar content.
Add Cinnamon
Sprinkle some cinnamon into your shake. This spice is known to help regulate blood sugar levels.
Portion Control
Consider using a smaller banana or half a banana to reduce the sugar content while still enjoying the flavor.
Use Whole Grains
If blending with oats, choose rolled oats, which digest more slowly and help control blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and after your shake to help with digestion and sugar absorption.
Monitor Timing
Consume your shake around physical activity when your body is more efficient at managing sugar.
Consider Prebiotic Foods
Add a small amount of inulin powder to your shake to promote healthy gut flora, which can help with sugar metabolism.
