How to consume Banana | Water without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume bananas with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds or a spoonful of peanut butter, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Choose Ripe Bananas Wisely

Opt for slightly less ripe bananas, as they generally have a lower sugar content compared to fully ripe ones.

Portion Control

Limit the amount of banana you consume in one sitting to help manage your blood sugar levels.

Eat with Fiber-rich Foods

Incorporate foods that are high in fiber, such as chia seeds or oatmeal, when eating bananas. This can aid in moderating the sugar absorption.

Drink Water Before Eating

Drink a glass of water before consuming bananas to help fill you up and potentially reduce the amount you eat.

Incorporate Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Monitor Timing of Consumption

Try eating bananas as part of a balanced meal rather than on their own. This can help mitigate potential spikes in glucose levels.

Stay Hydrated

Keep your overall water intake up throughout the day to aid in the proper functioning of your body’s metabolism and blood sugar regulation.

Spread Out Carbohydrate Intake

If you plan to eat multiple high-carb items, space them out throughout the day rather than consuming them all at once.
