How to consume Almonds, Medjool Dates, Walnuts without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the quantity of almonds, Medjool dates, and walnuts you consume at one time. Smaller portions can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Balance with Protein

Pair these foods with a source of protein, such as Greek yogurt or cottage cheese, to slow down the absorption of sugars into the bloodstream.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado or olive oil to your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add fiber-rich foods like chia seeds or flaxseeds to your diet. These can help slow down the digestion of carbohydrates, leading to a more gradual rise in blood sugar.

Hydration

Drink water before and after consuming these foods to help with digestion and absorption, potentially reducing the spike.

Combine with Vegetables

Include non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, kale, or cucumbers in your meal to add bulk and fiber, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.

Opt for Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, like a brisk walk, after consuming these foods to help your body utilize glucose more effectively.

Monitor Timing

Eat these foods at times when your body is better able to handle sugar, such as earlier in the day or after a workout.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and mindfully, savoring each bite, which can help with digestion and prevent overeating.

Experiment with Substitutes

Occasionally substitute dates with lower-sugar fruits like berries or a small apple to assess the impact on your blood sugar.
