How to consume cucumber, hummus without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Incorporate a source of protein such as grilled chicken or turkey slices, which can help slow the absorption of glucose.
Add Healthy Fats
Include healthy fats like avocado or a handful of nuts to your meal, as they can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grain Options
If you are having hummus with bread or crackers, opt for whole grain or whole wheat versions to help manage blood sugar levels.
Increase Fiber Intake
Add high-fiber vegetables like bell peppers or broccoli to your snack. Fiber can aid in reducing glucose spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Ensure you are drinking plenty of water throughout the day, as proper hydration can assist in regulating blood sugar.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes for both cucumber and hummus, as even low-impact foods can contribute to glucose spikes if consumed in large amounts.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat, chewing thoroughly, which can help with digestion and the gradual release of glucose into the bloodstream.
Monitor Timing
Try eating cucumber and hummus as part of a larger meal rather than on an empty stomach to moderate glucose responses.
Incorporate Vinegar
Use a splash of vinegar, such as in a salad dressing, as it may help in moderating blood sugar levels.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity after eating, such as a short walk, to help your body use glucose more efficiently.
