How to consume Date without glucose spikes

Pair Dates with Protein or Healthy Fats

Consume dates with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds, walnuts, or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Limit Portion Size

Instead of eating a large quantity of dates, limit your intake to a smaller portion to minimize the spike.

Add Fiber-Rich Foods

Include fiber-rich foods in your meal, such as oats, lentils, or leafy greens, to help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout the day and consider having water with your meal to aid digestion and help moderate blood sugar levels.

Exercise Regularly

Engage in regular physical activity, such as a brisk walk or light exercise, after consuming dates to help your body utilize the glucose more efficiently.

Choose Whole Grains

If you are having dates as part of a larger meal, include whole grains like quinoa or barley, which help to moderate glucose absorption.

Practice Mindful Eating

Slow down and savor each bite of your food, which can help prevent overeating and allow your body to better regulate blood sugar.

Monitor Your Response

Keep track of how your body reacts to dates and adjust your intake or pairings as needed to maintain stable glucose levels.
