How to consume Date, Mixed Nuts without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of dates and mixed nuts you consume in one sitting. Smaller portions will help manage the glucose spike.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of lean protein such as grilled chicken or tofu alongside your snack. Protein can help slow the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Fiber

Add foods rich in fiber like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your snack. Fiber can help slow down the release of glucose into the bloodstream.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you're eating mixed nuts and dates as part of a meal, pair them with whole grains like quinoa or barley to help moderate blood sugar levels.

Include Healthy Fats

Add avocado or a small serving of olive oil to your meal. Healthy fats can slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water before and after consuming high-sugar foods. Proper hydration helps in maintaining balanced blood sugar levels.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach or kale into your snack or meal. They provide additional fiber and nutrients without causing a blood sugar spike.

Monitor Timing

Try consuming your snack in the context of a balanced meal rather than on its own to minimize spikes.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity post-snack, like a short walk, to help utilize the glucose more effectively.

Track Your Responses

Keep a food diary to monitor how different quantities and combinations affect your blood sugar, and adjust accordingly.
