How to consume Papaya, Upma without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the amount of papaya and upma you consume in a single sitting. Smaller portions can help manage the spike in glucose levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein like a boiled egg, Greek yogurt, or a handful of nuts when consuming papaya and upma. Protein helps slow the absorption of sugars.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as avocado slices, olive oil, or a small serving of nuts. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Pair your meal with a fiber-rich salad or steamed vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or kale to slow down the digestion process.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration can support better glucose metabolism.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a 15-20 minute walk after your meal, to help your body use up glucose.

Choose Low-Sugar Fruit

If you want to include fruit, opt for lower-sugar options like berries, which can be mixed with papaya for a more balanced fruit serving.

Add Vinegar

Consider a small serving of vinegar-based dressing on your salad, as vinegar may help reduce blood sugar spikes.

Timing of Meals

Space out your meals and snacks to avoid large glucose spikes, ensuring that you are not consuming high-carb foods back-to-back.

Monitor Your Blood Sugar

Keep track of how your body responds to different foods, and adjust your diet accordingly to better manage your glucose levels.
