How to consume Cucumber (With Peel), Hummus without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the quantity of cucumber and hummus you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions can help manage your blood sugar response.

Pair with Protein

Add a source of protein such as a hard-boiled egg or a small serving of grilled chicken. Protein can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small portion of healthy fats like a few olives or a sprinkle of nuts. Fats can help moderate the glucose spike by slowing digestion.

Choose Whole Wheat Pita

If you’re using pita for dipping, opt for a whole wheat version. Whole grains can have a stabilizing effect on blood sugar levels.

Add Leafy Greens

Pair your snack with a side of leafy greens like spinach or kale. These are low in carbohydrates and can provide additional fiber.

Drink Water

Have a glass of water before your meal. Staying hydrated can help with digestion and may reduce the impact of glucose spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food. This can improve digestion and help your body maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Consistent Meal Timing

Try to have your meals and snacks at regular intervals throughout the day to maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after eating. This can help your body use the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of how your body responds to different food combinations. This will help you make informed decisions about your diet.
