How to consume Ajwa - Dates, Espresso Coffee without glucose spikes
Pair with Protein
Consume a small portion of protein-rich food, such as a handful of almonds or a serving of Greek yogurt, alongside Ajwa dates and espresso coffee to help slow down the absorption of sugars.
Add Fiber
Include high-fiber foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds in your meal. You could mix them into a yogurt or smoothie to help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats such as avocado slices or a few olives with your meal to reduce the rate of sugar absorption.
Portion Control
Limit the number of Ajwa dates you consume. Start with 2-3 dates and monitor your response to adjust accordingly.
Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before your espresso coffee. Staying hydrated can help your body manage sugar levels more effectively.
Opt for Decaf or Modify Coffee Intake
Choose decaffeinated espresso or reduce the amount of espresso to lower the impact on blood sugar levels.
Time Your Meals
Try consuming Ajwa dates and espresso after a balanced meal rather than on an empty stomach to minimize spikes.
Stay Active
Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after consuming the dates and coffee to help manage blood glucose levels.
Monitor and Adjust
Keep track of your blood sugar response after consuming these items and adjust your intake based on how your body reacts.
Consider Cinnamon
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon to your coffee or meal, as it may help improve insulin sensitivity and reduce spikes.
