How to consume Apples, Kiwi Fruit without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein or Healthy Fats

Combine apples or kiwi with a source of protein or healthy fats, such as a handful of almonds, a spoonful of peanut butter, or a slice of cheese. This can slow down the absorption of sugars from the fruit.

Increase Fiber Intake

Incorporate more fiber-rich foods in your diet, such as oats, barley, or legumes. These can help stabilize blood sugar levels when consuming fruits.

Opt for Smaller Portions

Instead of consuming a whole apple or several kiwis at once, try eating smaller portions and spreading them throughout the day to prevent spikes.

Choose Whole Fruits Over Juices

Whole fruits contain more fiber compared to their juice counterparts, which helps in moderating blood sugar levels.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water before or during your fruit intake can help slow the digestion process and manage glucose spikes.

Balanced Meals

Incorporate fruits as part of a well-balanced meal, including lean proteins and whole grains like quinoa or brown rice, to mitigate glucose spikes.

Regular Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activities, such as a short walk, after eating fruits to help your body utilize the glucose more effectively.

Monitor Timing

Consider consuming fruits earlier in the day when your metabolism might be more active, potentially reducing the impact on blood sugar levels.

Mindful Eating Practices

Focus on eating slowly and savoring the fruit to enhance digestion and absorption, which can prevent rapid spikes in glucose.

Experiment with Different Varieties

Some apple varieties may affect your blood sugar differently. Try different types and monitor your body’s response to find which ones suit you best.
