How to consume cut fruits without glucose spikes

Pair with Protein and Healthy Fats

Add a source of protein or healthy fats to your fruit snack. Options include a handful of almonds, a spoonful of peanut butter, or a small portion of Greek yogurt. This can help slow down the absorption of sugar.

Choose Fiber-Rich Fruits

Opt for fruits that are naturally lower in sugar and higher in fiber, such as berries, apples, or pears. The fiber content can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Portion Control

Be mindful of the portion size of the fruit you're consuming. Smaller portions can help prevent large spikes in blood glucose levels.

Eat Fruits with the Skin On

When possible, consume fruits with their skin, such as apples and pears. The skin contains additional fiber that can aid in slowing sugar absorption.

Combine with Leafy Greens

Include a serving of leafy greens, like spinach or kale, alongside your fruit snack. They have a negligible impact on blood sugar and can add nutrients and fiber.

Stay Hydrated

Drinking water can help maintain proper hydration and may assist in regulating blood sugar levels.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

After consuming fruit, consider going for a short walk or doing light exercises. Physical activity can help your body utilize glucose more effectively.

Monitor Timing of Fruit Consumption

Try to eat fruit earlier in the day or as part of a balanced meal to give your body more time to regulate blood sugar levels throughout the day.

Experiment with Different Fruits

Observe how different types of fruits affect your blood sugar. Some fruits may have a milder impact and can be more suitable for your diet.

Incorporate Vinegar

Consider consuming a small amount of vinegar, such as diluted apple cider vinegar, before eating fruit. Some studies suggest it can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
