How to consume Protein Fruit Smoothie - Blackberry Banana Shake With Whey Protien Powder without glucose spikes

Limit Portion Size

Reduce the serving size of the smoothie to manage the amount of carbohydrates and sugars consumed in one sitting.

Add Healthy Fats

Incorporate healthy fats like chia seeds or a small amount of avocado to slow down digestion and absorption, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include Fiber

Add a handful of spinach or kale to increase the fiber content. Fiber helps to slow the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.

Choose Low-Sugar Fruits

Use a smaller quantity of banana and increase the proportion of blackberries or add other low-sugar fruits like raspberries.

Use Unsweetened Almond Milk

Replace regular milk or sweetened alternatives with unsweetened almond milk to reduce sugar content.

Monitor Whey Protein Powder

Ensure that the whey protein powder used is unsweetened or low in sugar to prevent additional sugar intake.

Incorporate Cinnamon

Add a pinch of cinnamon to the smoothie. Cinnamon may help improve insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before consuming the smoothie to aid in digestion and help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Pair with a Healthy Snack

Consider having a small handful of nuts like almonds or walnuts alongside your smoothie for additional protein and healthy fats.

Time Your Intake

Consume your smoothie at a time when you are active or planning to exercise afterward, as physical activity can help manage blood sugar levels.
