How to consume Fresh Grapefruit And Orange Juice without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the quantity of grapefruit and orange juice you consume to reduce the overall sugar intake. Consider having a smaller serving size.

Pair with Protein

Include a source of protein, such as a handful of nuts or a serving of Greek yogurt, to help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like avocado or a small portion of seeds (chia or flax seeds) to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Fiber

Add high-fiber foods like oatmeal or a small apple to your meal to slow the digestion process.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water before consuming your fruit or juice to help dilute the sugars and reduce the spike.

Space Out Intake

Spread the intake of grapefruit and orange juice throughout the day instead of consuming it all at once.

Choose Whole Fruits

Opt for eating whole grapefruit instead of juice, as the fiber content in whole fruits can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Monitor Timing

Have your grapefruit and juice with a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to slow the sugar absorption.

Regular Monitoring

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after consumption to better understand how your body reacts and adjust accordingly.

Stay Active

Engage in light physical activity, such as a walk, after consuming grapefruit or orange juice to help your body use up the sugar more efficiently.
