How to consume Apple, Bananas without glucose spikes

Eat with Protein

Pair your apple or banana with a source of protein, such as a handful of almonds, a slice of cheese, or a spoonful of peanut butter. Protein can help slow down the absorption of sugars.

Add Healthy Fats

Include healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds in your meal. This can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Combine with Fiber

Eat your fruit along with other high-fiber foods like oats, chia seeds, or a small salad. Fiber helps to slow down sugar absorption.

Portion Control

Opt for smaller portions of apples and bananas to reduce the overall sugar intake in one sitting.

Eat Less Ripe Bananas

Choose bananas that are less ripe, as they contain less sugar compared to fully ripe ones.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity like a short walk after eating to help your body use up the glucose more effectively.

Drink Water

Ensure you are well-hydrated by drinking water before and after your fruit snack. Proper hydration can aid in better glucose metabolism.

Timing Matters

Consider eating your fruit earlier in the day when your body is more likely to use the energy, rather than storing it.

Eat Whole Fruits

Stick to whole apples and bananas rather than processed fruit products like juices or dried fruits, which can have added sugars and less fiber.

Monitor and Adjust

Keep track of your glucose levels after eating these fruits to understand how your body reacts and adjust your intake accordingly.
