How to consume Bananas, Upma without glucose spikes

Incorporate Protein and Healthy Fats

Add a source of protein or healthy fats to your meal to slow down the absorption of sugars. Consider including nuts, seeds, or Greek yogurt with your bananas or Upma.

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of bananas or Upma you consume at one time. Smaller portions can help in minimizing spikes in glucose levels.

Fiber-Rich Foods

Pair your meal with fiber-rich foods such as vegetables or legumes. Options like spinach, broccoli, or lentils can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can assist in regulating blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, use whole grain or alternative grains when making Upma, such as quinoa or millet, which have a slower impact on blood sugar.

Exercise Moderately

Engage in light to moderate physical activity after meals, such as walking, to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Eat Mindfully

Slow down and savor your food. Eating mindfully can help prevent overeating and improve your body's response to glucose.

Herbal Teas

Consider having herbal teas like chamomile or peppermint, which can help in calming the digestive system and supporting healthier glucose levels.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your blood sugar levels to understand how different foods and activities affect you personally, and make adjustments accordingly.
