How to consume generic - date (dried, pitted) qty 1, 2.5 date without glucose spikes
Combine with Protein
Pair the dates with a source of protein, such as a handful of almonds or a small piece of cheese, to help slow the absorption of sugar.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a small portion of healthy fats, like avocado slices or a spoonful of peanut butter, to your meal to help balance the carbohydrate content.
Eat with Fiber-Rich Foods
Incorporate high-fiber foods like chia seeds or a small apple to help moderate glucose absorption.
Hydration Before Consumption
Drink a glass of water before consuming dates to help fill your stomach and slow down glucose spikes.
Opt for Smaller Portions
Reduce the quantity of dates you consume at one time to limit the sugar intake.
Spread Out Intake
Instead of eating all the dates at once, spread out their consumption over a few hours.
Monitor Timing
Enjoy dates as part of a meal rather than on an empty stomach to lessen the glucose spike.
Engage in Light Activity
Consider a short walk after eating to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.
Mindful Eating Practices
Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to enhance digestion and give your body time to process the sugar.
Regular Monitoring
Keep track of your glucose levels before and after eating dates to understand their effect on your body and adjust your diet accordingly.
