How to consume dutch green smoothie, mixed salad greens without glucose spikes

Add a Protein Source

Include a protein-rich ingredient like Greek yogurt or a scoop of protein powder in your smoothie. Protein slows down digestion and helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add a tablespoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a small amount of avocado to your smoothie. Healthy fats can help moderate glucose absorption.

Choose Low-Sugar Fruits

Opt for berries like strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries in your smoothie. These fruits generally have a lower impact on blood sugar compared to tropical fruits.

Limit Fruit Juice

If using juice as a liquid base, substitute with unsweetened almond milk or water to reduce sugar content.

Include Fiber-Rich Foods

Add a handful of oats or a serving of psyllium husk to increase the fiber content. Fiber helps slow the absorption of sugars.

Consider Vinegar

Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to your smoothie or salad dressing. Vinegar can help improve insulin sensitivity.

Add Cinnamon

Sprinkle some cinnamon in your smoothie or salad. Cinnamon has been shown to help lower blood sugar levels.

Pre-Meal Hydration

Drink a glass of water before consuming your smoothie or salad. Staying hydrated can aid in reducing glucose spikes.

Watch Portion Sizes

Ensure your smoothie or salad portions are appropriate and not excessive, as large servings can increase glucose levels.

Consume Slowly

Sip your smoothie or eat your salad slowly, allowing your body more time to process and stabilize blood sugar levels.
