How to consume Bananas, Guavas without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein with your meal, such as a handful of nuts, a boiled egg, or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats like avocado slices, a spoonful of chia seeds, or a few almonds to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Integrate high-fiber foods such as oatmeal or legumes like lentils and chickpeas to aid in slowing down sugar absorption.

Stay Active Post-Meal

Engage in light physical activity, such as a 15-minute walk, after eating to help lower blood sugar levels.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support overall metabolic function and maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Pay attention to portion sizes of bananas and guavas to avoid consuming too much natural sugar at once.

Add Non-Starchy Vegetables
