How to consume english berry smoothie without glucose spikes

Incorporate Protein

Add a source of protein like Greek yogurt, almond milk, or a protein powder to your smoothie. This can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Include Healthy Fats

Blend in a tablespoon of nut butter or chia seeds. Healthy fats can help moderate blood sugar levels by slowing digestion.

Opt for Low-Carb Berries

Use berries like raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries in moderation as they tend to have lower sugar content compared to other fruits.

Add Fiber

Enhance your smoothie with fiber-rich foods such as spinach, kale, or flaxseeds. These can help reduce sugar absorption rates.

Limit Sweeteners

Avoid adding sugar or high-sugar fruits like bananas. Instead, use a small amount of natural sweetener like stevia if needed.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the quantity of the smoothie. Consider dividing it into smaller servings to avoid consuming too much at once.

Balance with a Meal

Consume the smoothie as part of a balanced meal that includes other macronutrients, rather than on its own.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before or along with your smoothie to help with digestion and glucose regulation.

Monitor Timing

Have the smoothie at times of the day when your body is more insulin-sensitive, such as post-exercise or in the morning.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity after consuming your smoothie to help lower blood sugar levels naturally.
